Question

A rental car company charges $0.50 per mile and a flat rate of $30.00 for any type of sedan. If m represents the number of miles driven and C(m) represents the total cost for renting a sedan, what is the linear equation that represents a cost of $130?

Answer 1

The equation to this would be $0.50m+$30.00=130 because each mile is $0.50 and m would represent as how many miles it well and then adding $30.00 because it’s the flat rate.
