Question

A cheese pizza costs $5. Additional toppings cost $1.50 each. Write and graph an equation in two variables that represents the total cost of a pizza. Let tt represent the number of toppings and c represent the total cost of the pizza. An equation in two variables that represents the total cost of a pizza is c=____

Answer 1

Answer:

$c=1.5t+5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t------> the number of toppings (independent variable)

c----> the total cost of the pizza (dependent variable)

we know that

The linear equation that represent the total cost of the pizza is equal to

$c=1.5t+5$ ------> is the equation of a line into slope intercept form

so

$y=mx+b$

where

the slope m is equal to $1.5\frac{\ }{topping}$

The y-intercept b is equal to $\ 5$ -----> represent the cost of the pizza when the number of toppings is equal to zero

Answer 2

Let t represent the number of toppings
and c represent the total cost of the pizza

c = 5 + 1.5t
