Select the correct answer. A delivery truck charges a fixed base price of $6 for 2 miles. After 2 miles, he charges an additional $2 for every mile. After 6 miles, he charges an additional $4 for every mile. Describe the cost of the delivery truck between 1 and 2 miles. A. The cost of the delivery truck between 1 and 2 miles is constant. B. The cost of the delivery truck between 1 and 2 miles cannot be determined from the given information. C. The cost of the delivery truck between 1 and 2 miles is decreasing. D. The cost of the delivery truck between 1 and 2 miles is increasing.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

i did it myself and i got 4.2 (b) hope its right
