After how many toppings will the medium and large pizzas cost the same
amount?

The pizzas will cost the same at 4 toppings.

The pizzas will cost the same at 5 toppings.

The pizzas will cost the same at 6 toppings.

Answer:

a.) The pizzas will cost the same at 4 toppings

Explanation:

Medium Pizza:

$5.99 + $0.75x

Large Pizza:

$6.99 + $0.50x

Find x

$5.99 + $0.75x = $6.99 + $0.50x

0.25x = 1

x = 4
