D.The cost of the delivery truck between 1 mile and 2 miles is constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially

Charge for 1 mile=$ 6

Charge for 2 miles=$6

After 2 miles , charge increased by $ 2 for every mile

Therefore, charge for 3 mile=6+2=$ 8

Charge for 4 miles=8+2=$10

Charge for 5 miles =10+2=$12

Charge for 6 miles=12+2=$14

After 6 miles , he charges an additional $4 for every mile

Therefore, charge for 7 miles=14+4=$18

Charge for 8 miles=18+4=$22

The cost between 1 mile and 2 miles is constant because charge increased after 2 miles.
