Carlos called a local truck rental company and got quotes for renting a truck. He was told that it would cost $41.95 to rent a truck for one day to travel 20 miles. It costs $89.95 to rent the truck for one day to travel 100 miles. Let x represent the number of miles driven and y represent the cost of the rental. 100 80 60 40 20 a. Using the ordered pairs (20, 41.95) and (100, 89.95), find the slope of the line. m 0.6 b. Interpret the slope in the context of this problem. The cost of renting a truck increases at a rate of $0.60 per mile. 22.
