The cost of one slice of mushroom pizza is $2.00 dollars. This is solved by subtracting the equations:
X = cheese pizza
Y = mushroom pizza
(3X + 4Y = 12.50)
- (3X + 2Y = 8.50)
______________
2Y = 4.00
Y=2 or a slice of mushroom pizza is $2.00.

Answer:
8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width.
If the length is 14 inches longer than the width, it can be represented by w + 14.
Use the perimeter formula, p = 2l + 2w. Plug in 60 as the perimeter and w + 14 as l, then solve for w:
p = 2l + 2w
60 = 2(w + 14) + 2w
60 = 2w + 28 + 2w
60 = 4w + 28
32 = 4w
8 = w
So, the width is 8 inches
You can write any decimal as a precent by moving the decimal 2 places to the right so
0.51 = 51%
5.1% < 51%
5.1% < 0.51
or, any precent can be written as a decimal by moving the decimal points two point to the left so
5.1% = 0.051
0.051 < 0.51
5.1% < 0.51
