Question

A sundae at an ice-cream shop costs $3, and each extra ounce of toppings costs

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of ounce of topping that can be get is 4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost of a sundae = $3

The cost for each extra ounce of toppings = $0.50

Let The number of ounce of topping = n

The total spending cost on sundae with n extra topping = $5

Now, According to question

The total spending cost on sundae with n extra topping = The cost of a sundae + The number of ounce of topping × The cost for each extra ounce of toppings

Or , $3 + n × $0.50 = $5

or, 3 + 0.50 n = 5

or , 0.50 n = 5 - 3

or, 0.50 n = 2

∴  n = $\dfrac{2}{0.50}$

I.e n = 4

So, The number of ounce of topping = n = 4

Hence The number of ounce of topping that can be get is 4 . Answer
