Step-by-step explanation:
Given At Joe's pizzeria a pizza cost $5 with the first topping, and then an additional 75 cents for each additional topping
a. If x represents the number of toppings on a pizza, What function represents the cost of a pizza with at least one topping?
b. What will be the function rule of the problem?
c. What will be the domain and range of the problem?
- According to the question the cost for one topping keeps on changing and there will be a constant rate of change.
- We have the slope intercept y = mx + b
- Now when x = 0, y = b
- But cost of pizza is $ 5, therefore we have
- 5 = m(0) + b
- Or b = 5
- Since m is the slope and each additional topping costs 75 cents we get m = 0.75 (since the unit is changed from dollar to cents)
- Also we have the additional toppings will cost 75 cents and only the first topping is $5 price.
- Now one less than the number of toppings will be x – 1
- Now we can write the function as
- f(x) = 0.75 (x – 1) + 5
