Cedric and Josh both ordered the same size pizzas at Marco’s Pizzeria; however, they ordered different toppings. Marco’s charges

Oksanka [162]

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

we know that
$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 without topping is
15.74-3*1.25--------> $11.99

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

the answer is
C=11.99+1.25t

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had 90$ in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80

sergiy2304 [10]

Let's first establish what we already know for this problem.

x = total number of hotdogs sold
y = total profit from total sales of hotdogs

Let's also establish the other equations which we will require in order to solve this problem.

Equation No. 1 -
Profit for 40 hotdogs = $90 profit

Equation No. 2 -
Profit for 80 hotdogs = $210 profit

STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION

From this, we can use the formula y = mx + b & substitute the values for x & y from one of the two previous equations into the formula in order to obtain the values of m & b for the final equation. Here is an example of the working out as displayed below:

Firstly, using the first or second equation, we make either m or b the subject. Here I have used the first equation and made m the subject:

Equation No. 1 -
y = mx + b
90 = m ( 40 ) + b
40m = 90 - b
m = ( 90 - b ) / 40

Now, make b the subject in the second equation as displayed below:

Equation No. 2 -
y = mx + b
210 = m ( 80 ) + b
210 = 80m + b
b = 210 - 80m

Then, substitute m from the first equation into the second equation.

Equation No. 2 -
b = 210 - 80m
b = 210 - 80 [ ( 90 - b ) / 40 ]
b = 210 - [ 80 ( 90 - b ) / 40 ]
b = 210 - 2 ( 90 - b )
b = 210 - 180 - 2b
b - 2b = 30
- b = 30
b = - 30

Now, substitute b from the second equation into the first equation.

Equation No. 1 -
m = ( 90 - b ) / 40
m = ( 90 - ( - 30 ) / 40
m = ( 90 + 30 ) / 40
m = 120 / 40
m = 3

Through this, we have established that:

m = 3
b = - 30

Therefore, the final equation to model the final profit, y, based on the number of hotdogs sold, x, is as follows:

y = mx + b
y = ( 3 )x + ( - 30 )

ANSWER:
y = 3x - 30

3,125=5^-10+3x What does x equal

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

x = 30517578124/29296875

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

3125 = 3 x + 1/9765625

Put each term in 3 x + 1/9765625 over the common denominator 9765625: 3 x + 1/9765625 = (29296875 x)/9765625 + 1/9765625:

3125 = (29296875 x)/9765625 + 1/9765625

(29296875 x)/9765625 + 1/9765625 = (29296875 x + 1)/9765625:

3125 = (29296875 x + 1)/9765625

3125 = (29296875 x + 1)/9765625 is equivalent to (29296875 x + 1)/9765625 = 3125:

(29296875 x + 1)/9765625 = 3125

Multiply both sides of (29296875 x + 1)/9765625 = 3125 by 9765625:

(9765625 (29296875 x + 1))/9765625 = 9765625×3125

(9765625 (29296875 x + 1))/9765625 = 9765625/9765625×(29296875 x + 1) = 29296875 x + 1:

29296875 x + 1 = 9765625×3125

9765625×3125 = 30517578125:

29296875 x + 1 = 30517578125

Subtract 1 from both sides:

29296875 x + (1 - 1) = 30517578125 - 1

1 - 1 = 0:

29296875 x = 30517578125 - 1

30517578125 - 1 = 30517578124:

29296875 x = 30517578124

Divide both sides of 29296875 x = 30517578124 by 29296875:

(29296875 x)/29296875 = 30517578124/29296875

29296875/29296875 = 1:

Answer: x = 30517578124/29296875
