Question

Kiyo bought a pizza for 12.75 and four medium drinks at Paulis pizza. Define a variable and write an expression to represent the total amount of money he spent. Then find the total cost if 1 drink is $3

Answer 1

let x represent cost of soda
y = 4x + 12.75
and if you put the three dollars into x
y = 12 + 12.75
so y = 24.75

Answer 2

a = cost of 1 drink $12.75 + 4a $12.75 + $12.00 = $24.75
