For the end-of-year party, Mt.Rise Middle School ordered 112 pizzas. There were eight fewer veggie pizzas than there were pepper

oni pizzas. There were three times as many combo pizzas as pepperoni pizzas. Use the 5-D process to define a variable and write an equation for this situation. Then determine how many of each kind of pizza were ordered.

Let the number of pepperoni pizzas be x
pepperoni = x
veggie = x - 8    [<span>There were eight fewer veggie than pepperoni]
</span>combo = 3x       [T<span>here were three times as many combo as pepperoni]
</span>
Given that the total Pizza: 112
x + x - 8 + 3x = 112
5x - 8 = 112
5x = 112 + 8
5x = 120
x = 24

x= 24
x - 8 = 16
3x = 72

So there were 24 pepperoni pizza, 16 veggie pizza and 72 combo pizza

How to find minimum and maximum of this equation.
Westkost [7]

Using it's vertex, the maximum value of the quadratic function is -3.19.

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The vertex is given by:

(x_v, y_v)

In which:

  • x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}
  • y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}

Considering the coefficient a, we have that:

  • If a < 0, the vertex is a maximum point.
  • If a > 0, the vertex is a minimum point.

In this problem, the equation is:

y + 4 = -x² + 1.8x

In standard format:

y = -x² + 1.8x - 4.

The coefficients are a = -1 < 0, b = 1.8, c = -4, hence the maximum value is:

y_v = -\frac{1.8^2 - 4(-1)(-4)}{4(-1)} = -3.19

121 bricks in 16.5 minutes 22 brings in m minutes
Westkost [7]
Use a proportion.

121/16.5 = 22/m

121m = 16.5 * 22

11m = 16.5 * 2

11m = 33

m = 3

3 minutes.
