Question

The cost of a large pizza is $10.99. Each additional topping costs $1.25. Write an expression that can be used to find the cost of a pizza when x toppings are included

Answer 1

Answer: 10.99 + 1.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a large pizza is $10.99 and each additional topping costs $1.25. The expression that can be used to calculate the cost of a pizza when x toppings are added will be:

Cost of pizza + (number of additional toppings × 1.25)

Since x toppings are included, this will be:

= 10.99 + (1.25 × x)

= 10.99 + 1.25x
