Question

John started a home delivery service from several local restaurants. He charges a $5 tip on the delivery, plus $0.75 for every mile he travels.

Write an equation for the function that relates the total cost of a trip to the distance.

Answer 1

Answer:c(d) = 5 + (0.75*d)

Step-by-step :

In this equation the cost (c) of the distance traveled (d) has a base rate of 5, and increases by .75 for every mile traveled (d)

Answer 2

f(x)=0.75x+5

Explanation:

It's 0.75 per mile (which is x in this case) and a 5 dollar tip that never changes so it's f(x)=0.75x+5
