In this problem you would set these two equations equal to each other.
$8+ $1.50x = $10+ $1x
After this you would simplify the equation to isolate x (being the number of toppings you put on the pizzas)
$8+ 1.50x =$10+ 1x
-8 -8
----------------------------
$1.50x = $2 + $1x
-1x -1x
---------------------------
$.50x/.50 = $2/.50
_______________
x= 4 toppings and the pizzas would equal $14 total
A. X = 2
what you do is divide each side by the coefficient of x (3.2) to get rid of it on the left, and simplify the right: 2.
Answer:
c=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Where do I start when I'm trying to solve a word problem? ... 44=A+B+C=(32C)+3C+C=112C. Multiplying both ends by 211 we find. C=8 ... Mac's collection contain 8 more than twice as many as Ted's.
