A bus company charges a fixed amount plus a fee based on the distance traveled. The cost chart for the company is shown:
Cost Chart Distance traveled (miles) (x) Cost (dollars) (y)
0 4
1 9
2 14
What is the fixed amount charged? $4 $5 $10 $12
Because with no distance traveled, the fixed amount charged would be $4. For every mile traveled, there is an additional $5. So your correct answer is $4.
