Question

PLEASE HELPPPPPP!!!!Tim sells two types of pizza. He charges $10 for a cheese pizza and $15 for a pepperoni pizza. Yesterday he sold 64 pizzas in all. For every cheese pizza, he sells 3 pepperoni pizzas. How much money did he make selling pizzas yesterday?

Answer 1

• He made $880 yesterday.

Explanation:

1 cheese pizza = 3 pepperoni pizzas

• => (x) cheese pizza = 3(x) pepperoni pizzas
• => x + 3x = 64
• => 4x = 64
• => x = 16

Hence, Tim sold 16 cheese pizzas and 48 pepperoni pizzas.

• => 1 cheese pizza = $10
• => 1 pepperoni pizza = $15
• => (10 x 16) + (48 x 15) = Total money earned
• => $880 = Total money earned

Hence, he made $880 yesterday.

Hoped this helped.
