Step-by-step explanation:

a) Cost of ice cream = $3

Total charge of ice cream with toppings = $3 + 50 cent (per toppings)

50 cent = $0.50

let the number of toppings = t

And the total cost = C

C = $3 + $0.5(t)

The equation that represent the total cost (C) of an ice cream base on the ounce of

toppings (t):

C = 3 + 0.5(t)

b) 3 ounces of toppings: t = 3
