Question 1165669: Define a function
f
that determines the amount that Esmeralda pays (in dollars) for gas to drive
m
miles, given that Esmeralda's car gets 26 miles per gallon and gas costs $3.70 per gallon

f(m) = m/26 * 3.70
m is the number of miles driven.
for example:
if she drove 260 miles, then the number of gallons she bought was 260 / 26 = 10 and the price she paid was 10 * 3.70 = 37.00 dollars.
