A car rental company charges an initial fee plus an additional fee for each mile driven. The charge depends on the type of car: economy or luxury. The charge E (in dollars) to rent an economy car is given by the function E= 15.95+0.60 M, where M is the number of miles driven. The charge L ( dollars) to rent a luxury car is given by the function L =21.40 +1.05 M. Let C be how much more it costs to rent a luxury car than an economy car (in dollars). Write an equation relating C to M. Simplify your answer as m possible.

The number S of fuel stations that sold compressed natural gas in the United States from 2009 to 2015 can be approximated by the function s(t)={ 69t+151,9t11160t803,12t15 where t represents the year, with t=9 corresponding to 2009. Use this function to approximate the number of stations that sold compressed natural gas each year from 2009 through 2015.
