The correct answer is D.
The function c(m) = 40.75 + 0.75m represents the cost for delivery, where 40.75 is the base cost of $40 plus the additional cost per mile of $0.75 multiplied by the distance m in miles.
To find out how much delivery costs for someone who lives 60 miles from the store, substitute m = 60 into the function:
c(60) = 40.75 + 0.75(60)
c(60) = 40.75 + 45
c(60) = 85.75
Therefore, the delivery cost for someone who lives 60 miles from the store is $85.00.
The function c(m) = 40.75 + 0.75m represents the cost for delivery, where 40.75 is the base cost of $40 plus the additional cost per mile of $0.75 multiplied by the distance m in miles.
To find out how much delivery costs for someone who lives 60 miles from the store, substitute m = 60 into the function:
c(60) = 40.75 + 0.75(60)
c(60) = 40.75 + 45
c(60) = 85.75
Therefore, the delivery cost for someone who lives 60 miles from the store is $85.00.
