c = 2.50 + 2m
Because the rate is 2 dollars per mile, we know the equation is 2m.
Answer:
[tex]C(m)=2m+2.50[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let C represent cost of the ride and m represent number of miles.
We have been given that Get-Around Cab Company charges $2 per mile. So the cost of riding a cab for m miles would be [tex]2m[/tex].
The company charges $2.50 upon entry, so the total cost of riding a cab for m miles would be [tex]2m+2.50[/tex].
Since C represent cost of ride, so we will equate total cost of riding a cab for m miles by C as:
[tex]C(m)=2m+2.50[/tex]
Therefore, our required function would be [tex]C(m)=2m+2.50[/tex].
