Solve the Problem $50\$ 50 For the First 20 Miles And $8\$ 8

Question 178

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The charges for renting a moving van are $50\$ 50 for the first 20 miles and $8\$ 8 for each additional mile. Assume that a fraction of a mile is rounded up. (i) Determine the cost of driving the van 88 miles.
(ii) Find a symbolic representation for a function f\mathrm { f } that computes the cost of driving the van x\mathrm { x } miles, where 0<x1000 < x \leq 100 . (Hint: express f\mathrm { f } as a piecewise-constant function.)


A) $594;f(x) ={50 if 0<x2050+8(x20)  if 20<x100\$ 594 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 50 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 20 \\ 50 + 8 ( x - 20 ) & \text { if } 20 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
B) $4944;f(x) ={50x if 0<x2050+8(x20)  if 20<x100\$ 4944 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 50 x & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 20 \\ 50 + 8 ( x - 20 ) & \text { if } 20 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
C) $914; f(x) ={50 if 0<x2050+8(x+20)  if 20<x100f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 50 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 20 \\ 50 + 8 ( x + 20 ) & \text { if } 20 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
D) $914;f(x) ={50 if 0<x2050+8(x20)  if 20<x100\$ 914 ; f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 50 & \text { if } 0 < x \leq 20 \\ 50 + 8 ( x - 20 ) & \text { if } 20 < x \leq 100 \end{array} \right.
