The answer is A. For every mile the car is driven, the cost increases by $0.25.

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation [tex]y= 0.25x+50[/tex] gives the cost y of renting a car if the car is driven x miles.

The correct statement is :

A. For every mile the car is driven, the cost increases by $0.25.

Lets check this:

when x = 5

[tex]y= 0.25(5)+50[/tex] = $51.25

when x = 6

[tex]y= 0.25(6)+50[/tex] = $51.50

when x = 7

[tex]y= 0.25(7)+50[/tex] = $51.75

So, we can see that A is correct.
