Answer:

  • plain cheese $11.45
  • each topping $1.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the price of a cheese pizza (no toppings), and t represent the price of a topping.

  c + 3t = 15.35 . . . . cost of a 3-topping pizza

  c + 5t = 17.95 . . . . cost of a 5-topping pizza

__

Subtract the first equation from the second.

  (c +5t) -(c +3t) = (17.95) -(15.35)

  2t = 2.60 . . . simplify [equation 3]

  t = 1.30 . . . . . divide by 2

Then the cost of the cheese pizza is ...

  c = 15.35 -3t = 15.35 -3(1.30) = 11.45

A plain cheese pizza costs $11.45; each topping costs $1.30.

_____

<em>Comment on the working</em>

If you're paying attention to what the problem statement is telling you, you should be able to arrive at "equation 3" without much thought. The 5-topping pizza differs from the 3-topping pizza only in the price of 2 toppings. Once you know the price of a topping, figuring the base price of the pizza is not hard.

Answer:

ο Neither is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the vertex has coordinates (5;-7) the equation must be made up according to the rule: y=(x-x₀)²-y₀, where (x₀;y₀) - the coordinates of the vertex;

2) according to the rule above the equation of the given graph is:

y=(x-5)²-7;

3) finally, 'neither is correct'

What is the equation of the graphed linear model?<br><br><br><br> y = <br> x +
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y + mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 110) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (20, 70) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{70-110}{20-0} = \frac{-40}{20} = - 2

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 110) ⇒ c = 110

y = - 2x + 110 ← equation of line
