Question

A pizza shop charges $13 per pizza. The first two toppings cost $2 each, then it is $1 for each additional topping. What is the final cost of a pizza with 5 toppings.

A. $15
B. $18
C. $20
D. $21
E. $24

Answer 1

13+(2+2)=17+(3x1)=20or c

Answer 2

20

Explanation:

First we start off with the Pizza ($13)

Then we add our first 2 toppings to our pizza ($2 + $2 = $4)

And then we add our last 3 toppings to our pizza ($1 + $1 + $1 = $3)

Now we can add all of our costs up to get our answer

$13 + $4 + $3 = 20$

Therefore the cost for this Pizza is $20
