Question 148

Multiple Choice

The charges for renting a moving van are $65\$ 65 for the first 40 miles and $5\$ 5 for each additional mile. Assume that a fraction of a mile is rounded up. (i) Determine the cost of driving the van 84 miles. (ii) Find a symbolic representation for a function f\mathrm { f } that computes the cost of driving the van xx miles, where 0<x1000 < x \leq 100 . (Hint: express f\mathrm { f } as a piecewise-constant function.)


A) $685;f(x) ={65 if 0<x4065+5(x+40)  if 40<x100\$ 685 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 65 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 40 \\ 65 + 5 ( x + 40 ) & \text { if } 40 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
B) $685;f(x) ={65 if 0<x4065+5(x40)  if 40<x100\$ 685 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 65 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 40 \\ 65 + 5 ( x - 40 ) & \text { if } 40 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
C) $285;f(x) ={65 if 0<x4065+5(x40)  if 40<x100\$ 285 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 65 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 40 \\ 65 + 5 ( x - 40 ) & \text { if } 40 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
D) $5680;f(x) ={65x if 0<x4065+5(x40)  if 40<x100\$ 5680 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 65 x & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 40 \\ 65 + 5 ( x - 40 ) & \text { if } 40 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
