Under certain conditions, the average cost of driving a medium sedan in 2012 was $0.67 per mile. How much would it have cost to drive such a car 15,000 miles in2012?It will cost $ to drive the car 15,000 miles(Simplify your answer. Round to the nearest dollar as needed.)

Respuesta :

Because in 2012 the cost of driving a medium sedan was $0.67 per mile, it means that we can find the value for driving it for, let us say, N miles, is just the number N times the amount of money it would be if it was N = 1. From this, we write the following relation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(N)=P_1\times N \\ P(15,000)=0.67\times15,000 \\ P(15,000)=10,050 \end{gathered}[/tex]

From the above-presented solution, we are able to conclude that:

It will cost $ 10,050 to drive the car.
