Y = total amount of money spent
x = cost of one drink

So our expression is:
4x + 12.75

4x stands for 4 drinks times x price of one drink
The 12.75 is a one time fee for the pizza, since Kiyo isn't buying multiple pizzas.

The problem also asks us to find the total price, so we write an equation:

y = 4x + 12.75
We insert what x is which in this case is $3
y = 4(3) + 12.75
Order of Operations tells us to multiply first:
y = 12 + 12.75
Now add your values:
y = 24.75
Therefore, Kiyo spent a total amount of 24.75 at Paola's pizza.

Let's check our problem just in case:

24.75 = 4x + 12.75
Since we now know what y is equal to, we can plug that into our original equation and check just to verify

We should subtract 12. on both sides of the equation because of inverse operations:

24.75 - 12.75  = 12.75 - 12.75 + 4x
We are left with:

12 = 4x
We divide:
\frac{12}{4}  =  \frac{4x}{4}
Our result is:
3 = x
Which checks out because each drink was in fact, $3 dollars as stated in the word problem. Hope that was thorough enough.

Naya [18.7K]
Not A because regular means all sides are equal.
B has to be the answer because the others are not.
Not C because a right triangle is not regular, i.e. and equilateral triangle.
Not D because a rectangle has different side lengths.
