1. Let the one time fee be represented by f and the daily rate be represented by d. From the given information, we can set up the following equations:
$32 = f + 3d
$41 = f + 5d
Solving these two equations simultaneously, we find:
f = $26
d = $2
Therefore, the one time fee is $26 and the daily rate is $2.
2. The linear function representing the relationship between the amount of money spent on bicycle rental (M) and the number of days (n) is:
M(n) = 26 + 2n
