Question

Jack bought 3 slices of cheese pizza and 4 slices of mushroom pizza for a total cost of $12.50. Grace

Answer 1

The right answer is option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Slice of Cheese Pizza = x

Slice of Mushroom Pizza = y

According to given statement;

3x + 4y = 12.50 Eqn 1

3x + 2y = 8.50  Eqn 2

Subtract Eqn 2 from Eqn 1;

$(3x+4y)-(3x+2y)=12.50-8.50\\3x+4y-3x-2y=4.00\\2y=4.00\\y=\frac{4.00}{2} \\y=2.00$

As y is supposed as slice of mushroom, the price of one slice of mushroom pizza is $2.00

The right answer is option 2.
