Answer:

R(x) = 2.25x + 4.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation form: R(x) = mx + b

m: represents the additional amount Joshua is charged for every day until he returns the movie, which in this case is $2.25. So, the value of m is 2.25.

b: represents the initial cost of renting the movie. Joshua rented the movie for $4.49, so b is 4.49.

Since we know the value of m and b, we can write the equation:

R(x) = 2.25x + 4.49
