rate chart
distance traveled (miles) (x) |cost (dollars) (y)
0 | 10
1 | 12
2 | 14

what is the fixed amount charged?
$2
$3
$10
$12

C. $10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a table for rate chart of a cab company.

Distance traveled (Miles)         Cost($)

0                                                      10

1                                                       12

2                                                      14

We can see from our give table that when a person travels 0 miles, the charges are $10.

This means that initial value is $10. With each mile traveled the cost increases by $2, this means that cost per mile is $2.

Therefore, the fixed charges would be $10 and option C is the correct choice.
