Question
A local pizza shop is selling pizza by the slice. Each slice costs $1.95. Which equation represents the total cost, c
, of buying 5 slices? (1 point)
Responses
c − 1.95 = 5
c − 1.95 = 5
- no response given
5c = 1.95
5c = 1.95
- incorrect
c1.95 = 5
c1.95 = 5

To find the total cost, \( c \), of buying 5 slices of pizza, you can use the equation:
\[ c = 1.95 \times 5 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ c = 9.75 \]
However, since you are looking for an equation rather than a value, the correct equation that represents the total cost of buying 5 slices of pizza is:
\[ c = 1.95 \times 5 \]
None of the responses you provided exactly match this equation, but if you adjust it to represent this equation, you might want to consider:
\[ 1.95c = 5 \]
However, that would not be correct as \( c \) should represent the total cost, which means:
The correct equation should ideally be \( c = 1.95 \times 5 \) or rewritten appropriately.
None of these options is exactly right.
Therefore, the closest form based on your options, but with the understanding that it may be misformatted, would be:
**Response: \( c = 1.95 \times 5 \)**
None of the provided options were correct as stated. If you had to pick one, none fits accurately. Please clarify if adjustments can be made to the options.
