Question

PLEASE HELP ME

6.
Dom is selling pizza at Hoopfest to help him raise money to go on a road trip. He wants each topping to increase the total price at a rate of $1.25. When someone ordered a 3-topping pizza the price was $16.25. Write an equation to represent this data.​

Answer 1

P = 12.50 + 1.25t

Explanation:

To find an equation to represent the price of a pizza, we need to first figure out the original price of a pizze.
Since the price is 16.25 dollars, and there are 3 toppings, each of which cost 1.25, the original price would be:

16.25 - 3(1.25) = 12.50

Thus, we can represent the cost of a pizze with toppings as:
P = 12.50 + 1.25t, where P = Price and t = amount of toppings.

Hope this helps!
