Most cab drivers will charge you a certain amount of money just for letting you into their cab. This is a fixed cost. Then the cab driver will charge you a certain amount of money for each mile driven. So, you have a fixed cost and a variable cost. Your job is to determine what the fixed cost and the rate (cost per mile) are, from this graph.

Good. Be certain to use units of measurement: $ for the y-intercept and $ per mile for the slope.
