Answer:

The answer is Z = 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be Z

Z + 4.8 = 3 × Z

Z + 4.8 = 3Z

Collect like terms

4.8 = 3Z - Z

4.8 = 2Z

Z = 4.8/2

Z = 2.4

Answer:

The number is 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y

The sum of the number and 4.8 is written as: y + 4.8

Three times the number is written as: 3y

From the question, we were told that the sum of the number and 4.8 is three times the number. This is illustrated as:

y + 4.8 = 3y

Collect like terms

4.8 = 3y — y

4.8 = 2y

Divide both side by the coefficient of y i.e 2

y = 4.8/2

y = 2.4

The number is 2.4

A small pizza at Little Italy pizzeria costs $9.25, and each topping is an additional $0.50. So the cost of ordering a pizza can
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Graph the equation is shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear equation representing the relation between cost of ordering a pizza and the number of additional toppings is:

y=0.50x+9.25

Here,

<em>y </em>= cost of the pizza

<em>x</em> = number of toppings

The graph of the linear equation is shown below.

Consider the point (2, 10.25).

When <em>x</em> = 2 compute the value of <em>y</em> as follows:

y=0.50x+9.25\\=(0.50\times 2)+9.25\\=10.25

The point (2, 10.25) satisfies the equation.

Again consider a point (18, 18.25).

When <em>x</em> = 18 compute the value of <em>y</em> as follows:

y=0.50x+9.25\\=(0.50\times 18)+9.25\\=18.25

The point (18, 18.25) satisfies the equation.

The two points are also plotted on the graph.
