Eddies towing company charges $40 to hook a vehicle to the truck and $1.70 for each mile the vehicle is towed. which equation best represents the relationship between the number of miles towed, m, and the total charges, c?

a. c=40+1.70
b. c=40+1.70m
c. c=40m+1.70
d. c=40m+1.70

B

Step-by-step explanation:

$40 is the flat fee of hooking a vehicle. It does not depend on m, miles towed.

$1.70 depends on miles towed, m. So if m miles are towed, the towing fee would be 1.70 * m, or 1.70m.

THAT, would be added to the initial fixed me of $40.

Hence, total charges, c, would be 40 + 1.70m

Answer choice B is right.

based on context clues you gave i'm assuming the answer would be c.
