document.write( "Question 1116603: Suppose that a car rental agency charges a fixed amount per day plus an amount per mile for renting a car. Heidi rented a car one day and paid $95 for 200 miles. On another day she rented a car from the same agency and paid $146 for 370 miles. Find the linear function f(x) (where x is in miles and f(x) is in dollars) that the agency could use to determine its daily rental charges.
