?

Answer 1

Answer:

C(x) = .95x + 37

The slope is .95 dollars per mile  and the y intercept is 37 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

the flat rate is 37 plus .95 dollars a mile

C(x) = .95x + 37

This is in the form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is .95 dollars per mile  and the y intercept is 37 dollars
