A car rental company charges a flat fee of $20 plus $0.15 per mile driven. Write a linear equation to represent the total cost (C) in terms of miles driven (m). What is the slope and what does it represent in this context?
C = 20 + 0.20m; Slope = 0.20 (cost per mile)
C = 20 + 0.15m; Slope = 0.15 (cost per mile)
C = 20 + 0.10m; Slope = 0.10 (cost per mile)
C = 15 + 0.15m; Slope = 0.15 (base fee)
