Answer 1

Answer:

a). Total amount of money=68 dollars

b). Number of pies sold=4 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Total amount of money he makes

Total amount of money=(Price per soda×number of sodas sold)+(Price per slice of pizza×number of pizzas sold)

where;

Price per soda=1.25 dollars

number of sodas sold=16 sodas

Price per slice of pizza=1.50 dollars

number of pizza slices sold=32 slices

Replacing;

Total amount of money=(1.25×16)+(32×1.50)=68 dollars

b). Number of pizza pies he sold

Number of pizza pies sold=Slice sizes×number of slices sold

where;

Slice sizes=1/8

number of slices sold=32 slices

Replacing;

Number of pies sold=(1/8)×32=4 pies
