A taxi company charges a flat fee of $3 plus $2 per mile driven. Write the function that represents the total cost (C) as a function of the number of miles driven (m). Then, interpret the rate of change and the initial value.

• C(m) = 2m + 3

• C(m) = 3m + 2

• C(m) = 4m + 1

• C(m) = 5m + 2

A pond in Luke's neighborhood has a depth of 81.6 inches. During the dry season, the pond loses an average of 0.02 inches of water each day. Luke wrote the function below to represent the depth of the pond in inches x days after the dry season begins. Explain Luke's error and rewrite the function correctly.

• f(x) = -0.02(x + 81.6)

• f(x) = -0.02x + 81.6

• f(x) = -0.02x - 81.6

• f(x) = -0.02(x - 81.6)
