2) a truck rental company rents a moving truck one day by charging $31 plus $0.13 per mile. write a linear equation that relates the cost c, in dollars, of renting the truck to the number x of miles driven. what is the cost of renting the truck if the truck is driven 180 miles? a) c(x)

Respuesta :

The equation is c = 31 + 0.13x and total cost on driving 180 miles is $54.4.

Firstly we will form the equation using one time charge and the product of number of miles and charge per mile. Then we will keep the value in equation to find the total cost.

Forming the equation -

c = 31 + 0.13x

Keep the value of x in formula for calculation of total cost.

c = 31 + 0.13×180

Performing multiplication on Right Hand Side of the equation

c = 31 + 23.4

Performing addition on Right Hand Side of the equation

c = $54.4

Thus, the equation for calculation of total cost is c = 31 + 0.13x and total cost is $54.4.
