Answer: Mr Smith bought 7 pepperoni pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

cost of cheese pizza  =$11

pepperoni pizza cost =$12.50

let number cheese pizza be represented as c

and number of pepperoni pizza be represented as p

such that the total number of pizza  bought which equals 13 can be represented as

c+ p= 13

and total cost of both pizza  can be expressed as

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

Step 2 Solving

 c+ p= 13

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

By elimination method, Multiply equation 1 by 11 and subtract the new equation from equation 2

11c+ 12.50p =153.50

11c+ 11p=143.

1.5p =10.5

p= 10.5/ 1.5 =7

c+ p= 13

c= 13-p =13-7=6

Therefore Mr Smith bought 6 cheese pizza and 7 pepperoni pizza
