Answer:

Php 210

Step-by-step explanation:

Basic pizza = Php 150

each additional slice of meat topping = Php 5

y = 150 + 5x

Where,

y = Total cost of pizza

x = number of additional meat topping

How much will the pizza cost if it has a dozen slices of meat

toppings?

A dozen slices of meat

toppings = 12 slices of meat

toppings

y = 150 + 5x

= 150 + 5(12)

= 150 + 60

= 210

y = Php 210

Using a linear function, it is found that the pizza will cost Php 210.

A linear equation has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the initial value.

In this problem:

  • Basic pizza costs Php 150, thus [tex]b = 150[/tex]
  • Each additional slice costs Php 5, thus [tex]m = 5[/tex]

Then:

[tex]y = 5x + 150[/tex]

The cost if it has a dozen slices of meat  toppings is y when x = 12, thus:

[tex]y = 5(12) + 150 = 210[/tex]

The pizza will cost Php 210.
