You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If cost of each vehicle is y=30+45x, then you can cancel choices 3 and 4.

Now you decide between choices 1 and 2.

y is already described as the cost for any car. y depends on x, from the other member 30%2B45x. What could possibly vary for each car? Either the size or the number of people inside. Both choices 1 and 2 are badly described.

WHERE is the choice for 30 dollars basic car fee, 45 dollars PER PERSON, x for number of people in the car?
