Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of the company consist of two elements; a fixed cost equivalent to $4 and a variable cost element which depends on the miles driven. If the car travels x miles then the cost will be

= 4 + 1*x

= 4 + x

If the total cost is $28 then

4 + x = 28

Subtract 4 from both sides

x = 28 - 4

= 24  

The car ride is

24/1 = 24 miles
