To find the cost of a large pizza with 3 toppings using the equation \( y = 11 + 1.5x \), you can substitute \( x \) with 3.
\[
y = 11 + 1.5(3)
\]
Now, calculate \( 1.5 \times 3 \):
\[
1.5 \times 3 = 4.5
\]
Now substitute that back into the equation:
\[
y = 11 + 4.5 = 15.5
\]
Thus, the cost of a large pizza with 3 toppings is **$15.50**.
\[
y = 11 + 1.5(3)
\]
Now, calculate \( 1.5 \times 3 \):
\[
1.5 \times 3 = 4.5
\]
Now substitute that back into the equation:
\[
y = 11 + 4.5 = 15.5
\]
Thus, the cost of a large pizza with 3 toppings is **$15.50**.
