STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We can determinate the functions with what is mentioned in the statement.

a)

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ Company A} \\ C(m)=48+0.25m \\ \\ \text{ Company B} \\ C(m)=64+0.24m \end{gathered}[/tex]

b)

[tex]\begin{gathered} C(220)=48+0.25\cdot220 \\ C(220)=\text{ \$103} \end{gathered}[/tex]

c)

[tex]\begin{gathered} C(220)=64+0.24\cdot220 \\ C(220)=\text{ \$}116.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
