Dont leave your select query anonymus, just pass your select with viewModed like

 var v = (from pd in ge.Costs
                 join od in ge.Services on pd.ServiceId equals od.ServiceId
                 join ct in ge.ServiceTypes on pd.ServiceTypeId equals ct.ServiceTypeId
                 where pd.ServiceTypeId.Equals(2)
               select new costViewModel()
               {
                   CostId = pd.CostId,
                   serviceName = od.serviceName,
                   ServiceTypeValue = ct.ServiceTypeValue,
                   ServiceCost = pd.ServiceCost
               }).ToList();
view(v);

and then pass v in view model

and on view page use

@model IEnumerable<project.ViewModel.costViewModel>

try using costViewModel to pass values into your View, so in short, do not leave your select anonymous, create some of your desired objects and pass v to View:

in your Controller:

var v = (from pd in ge.Costs
             join od in ge.Services on pd.ServiceId equals od.ServiceId
             join ct in ge.ServiceTypes on pd.ServiceTypeId equals ct.ServiceTypeId
             where pd.ServiceTypeId.Equals(2)
             select new costViewModel()
             {
                 CostId = pd.CostId,
                 serviceName = od.serviceName,
                 ServiceTypeValue = ct.ServiceTypeValue,
                 ServiceCost = pd.ServiceCost
             }).ToList();

return View(v);

and in your View:

@model List<costViewModel>

var v = (from pd in ge.Costs
                 join od in ge.Services on pd.ServiceId equals od.ServiceId
                 join ct in ge.ServiceTypes on pd.ServiceTypeId equals ct.ServiceTypeId
                 where pd.ServiceTypeId.Equals(2)
                 select new costViewModel
                 {
                     CostId = pd.CostId,
                     serviceName = od.serviceName,
                     ServiceTypeValue = ct.ServiceTypeValue,
                     ServiceCost = pd.ServiceCost
                 }).ToList();

or anonymous

var v = (from pd in ge.Costs
                     join od in ge.Services on pd.ServiceId equals od.ServiceId
                     join ct in ge.ServiceTypes on pd.ServiceTypeId equals ct.ServiceTypeId
                     where pd.ServiceTypeId.Equals(2)
                     select new
                     {
                         CostId = pd.CostId,
                         serviceName = od.serviceName,
                         ServiceTypeValue = ct.ServiceTypeValue,
                         ServiceCost = pd.ServiceCost
                     }).ToList();
