Question

Sarah bought 3 pizzas and a liter of

soda that cost a total of $15.00. The
liter cost $1.50. How much did each
pizza cost? Write an equation and
solve.

Answer 1

The equation would be 3x + 1.50 = 15.00
As for 15 - 1.50 = 13.5

13.5 = 3x

13.5/3 = x

X= 4.5

I think lolz yea

Answer 2

Each pizza cost $4.50.

Explanation:

p = price of each pizza

l = cost of soda

3p + l = 15.00

l = 1.50 Plug in 1/5 for l in the equation above.

3p + l = 15.00

3p + 1.5 = 15.00 Subtract 1.52 from both sides of the equation

3p = 13.5 Divide both sides by 3

p = 4.50
