A car has 121,358 miles on its odometer and accumulates an average of 255 more each week. What is the function rule that represents the total number of M miles the car will have on the odometer after w weeks? (1 point)

Question

Responses

M(w)=121,358+255
cap m times w is equal to 121 comma 358 plus 255

M(w)=121,358+255w
cap m times w is equal to 121 comma 358 plus 255 w

M(w)=121,358w+255w
cap m times w is equal to 121 comma 358 w plus 255 w

M(w)=121,358w+255

Answer 1

The correct function rule that represents the total number of miles \( M \) the car will have on the odometer after \( w \) weeks is:

\[ M(w) = 121,358 + 255w \]

This means that the car starts with 121,358 miles and accumulates an additional 255 miles for each week \( w \).
