To make the cab company's charges a non-proportional situation, they should implement a fixed fee. The correct response is:
Charge a flat rate of $10 and then $8 per mile.
This introduces a fixed charge (the $10), which means the total cost will not vary proportionally with the distance traveled, as there is an additional set fee added to the cost per mile.
