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.

viva [34]
Jennifer will get 7 kilograms of carrots.

To solve this, simply divide 28 by 4, which is the total number of people sharing the carrots altogether. You wouldn’t divide the number of carrots, 3, by 4, because that is additional info that is out there to throw you off track. Instead, to find the weight of the carrots that Jennifer would get, you would divide the total weight of the carrots by the people sharing them to get 7 kg.
