Question 1159740: 1. A cab charges $1.50 per mile plus $350 for entering the cab. The cost of the ride is
a function of the miles, m, ridden and is defined by c(m) = 1.50m + 3.50.
• Make a table of at least 5 pairs of values that represent the
relationship.
• If you were to graph, should the points be connected? Are there any input or output values that don’t make sense? Explain.

c(m) = 1.50m + 3.50.
x=12 c(m) = 60, (12,60)
x=6, c(m) = 30, (6,30)
x=18, c(m) = 90 (18,90)
x=4, c(m) = 20, (4,20)
x=2, c(m) = 9 (2,9)
Plot the graph
.
It is a straight line. showing cost varies directly as distance
