Question

, with x
representing the number of additional toppings and y
representing the total price of the pizza. What is the cost of a large pizza with 3 toppings?(1 point)
$

Answer 1

To find the total cost of a large pizza with 3 additional toppings using the equation \( y = 11 + 1.5x \):

1. Substitute \( x \) with the number of toppings (3): \[ y = 11 + 1.5(3) \]

2. Calculate \( 1.5(3) \): \[ 1.5 \times 3 = 4.5 \]

3. Now substitute back into the equation: \[ y = 11 + 4.5 = 15.5 \]

So, the cost of a large pizza with 3 toppings is $15.50.
