To plot: the step graph to represent the cost of going over mileage.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Charge after 12000 miles is $0.20 per mile. Also, any fraction of mile is rounded up to the next mile.
Calculation:
M is charged by some constant amount till 12000 miles. After 12000 miles, M is charged by $0.20 per mile. Following is the table for distance above 12000 mile:
Number of miles over 12000 miles | Cost ($ per miles) |
| |

At 12000 miles, the cost 0.2 will not be added. Thus, at starting point on the graph will be opened circle. At the end of 1 mile after 12000 mile, the cost $0.2 will be added. Hence, the end point must be dark circle. The step graph is shown below:
