Let
C---------> <span>the cost of a pizza
</span>t----------> <span>number of toppings

we know that
</span>$15.74-3t=$14.49-2t
15.74-14.49=3t-2t-------------> t=1.25

the cost of one topping is $1.25
and the cost of one pizza <span>without topping is
</span>15.74-3*1.25--------> $11.99

then
<span>an equation for the cost of a pizza, C, as a function of the number of toppings, t ordered is
</span>C=11.99+1.25t

the answer is 
C=11.99+1.25t

Answer:

f(c)=1.25x+11.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of toppings

Let c be the cost of pizza

Cedric got pepperoni, banana peppers, and black olives on his pizza for a cost of $15.74.

Josh ordered mushrooms and eggplant on his pizza and paid $14.49.

As the toppings has the same cost, we can equate the equations:

15.74-3x=14.49-2x

3x-2x=15.74-14.49

x = $1.25

Thus each topping costs $1.25.

And cost of any pizza without topping = 14.49-2(1.25)=11.99 dollars

So, the function becomes in terms of c ;

f(c)=1.25x+11.99

The base price of pizza is $11.99 and it will increase as the toppings increase.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

While working at his neighborhood math tutoring center researching the comprehension level of the students Dion investigated that the distribution of the student test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 79.13 and a standard deviation of 6.34. What is the probability that the student scores less than 60.11

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

z = 60.11 - 79.13/6.34
