First: Average cost per mile in $ is given

Second : The \(Q\) is only about: \(1982 +\) Sub Comp Segment \(+\) for \(10,000\) miles

Third: For \(SC\) segment the value is between \(0.3\) and \(0.4,\) hence the figure for \(10,000\) miles will be between \(3000\$\) and \(4000\$\)

Fourth: Only \(1\) suitable option \(\Longrightarrow\) B \(3400$\)
