To determine the total cost for a monthly usage of 1500 gallons using the given function \( c = 0.30g + 25 \), we can substitute \( g \) with 1500.

Calculating the total cost:

\[ c = 0.30(1500) + 25 \] \[ c = 450 + 25 \] \[ c = 475 \]

Therefore, the point that accurately represents a monthly usage of 1500 gallons is \( (1500, 475) \).

So, the correct response is:

(1500, 475)
