3. Write an equation in standard form to represent the amount charged, C, for m number of miles by the company in Charlotte. (Remember A cannot be negative and no fractions or decimals for any of the values)
If we assume that the company charges a fixed rate for every mile traveled, we can write the equation in the form:
C = Rm + A
Where C represents the amount charged, m represents the number of miles traveled, R represents the rate charged per mile, and A represents an additional fixed fee.
However, without specific information about the rates and fees charged by the company, we cannot determine the exact values for R and A, so we can only represent the equation in standard form by rearranging the terms:
-Rm + C = A
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
