A) The equation that represents the rate of this company is:
Total Cost = $4 + ($0.75)(Miles)
B) To graph this equation, you would plot the total cost on the y-axis and the number of miles on the x-axis. The y-intercept would be $4, as this is the fixed boarding rate. The slope of the line would be $0.75, as this is the rate per mile.
A cab company charges a $4 boarding rate in addition to its meter which is $ ¾ a dollar for every mile
