ANSWER

C = 12p + 3

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the equation that represents the cost of having a number of pizzas delivered.

The pizzeria charges $12 per pizza. This means that for p pizzas, the charges will be:

Charges = 12 * p

Charges = 12p

The total cost is the sum of the pizza charges and the delivery charges. That is:


C=12p+3

That is the equation.
