The correct answer is A) 5.

This is a problem of solving two simultaneous equations and approximation. There are two functions for cost and we have to spot where they intersect. The two functions intersect at when the x variable which represents number of toppings is about 5. This value represents when customers buy cheese pizza with a total of 5 toppings.

The correct answer is A.5
