Question

kiyo bought a pizza for 12.75 and four medium drinks to Pauli’s pizza. Define a variable and write an expression to represent the total amount of money he spent. Then find the total cost if one drink costs $3.

Answer 1

The total cost, if one drink costs $3 is $27.75

• Let the cost of a pizza be x

• Let the cost of a drink be y

If kiyo bought a pizza for 12.75 and four medium drinks to Pauli’s pizza, this expressed as x + 4y

Since a pizza costs $12.75, hence x = $12.75

The function becomes 12.75 + 5y

f(y) = 12.75 + 5y

To get the total cost if one drink costs $3, hence;

f(3) = 12.75 + 5(3)

f(3) = 12.75 + 15

f(3) = 27.75

Hene the total cost, if one drink costs $3 is $27.75
