Answer:
1.6 OR 8/5
(They are the same thing.)
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
The relationship between time and amount of popcorn popped is proportional.
The grade on the west side would be the vertical rise divided by the horizontal run or 525 divided by 800' or rounded off to 66% (a steep grade as in an underground mine a grade of 25% is considered very steep for vehicles to go up or conveyors to travel). On the east side the 40% grade was obtained by dividing the 525' vertical height by the 1300' run.
