Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Service cost = $10 per month

Free rental DVD = first 3

Rental after first 3 DVD = $2 per month

We need to find the expressions models for the total amount that Tharun pays, in dollars, in a month when he rents d, DVDs where d>3.

Fixed cost = $10

Rental apply after first three DVD. So,

Variable cost = $2(d-3)  

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost  

[tex]=10+2(d-3)[/tex]

Therefore, the required expression is C.
