A pizza shop sells pizzas that are 12 inches in diameter or larger a 12 inch cheese pizza cost eight dollars each additional inch cost $2.50 and each additional toppings cost $1.25 write an equation that represents the cost of the pizza be sure to specify what variables represent they'll be three variables

C(x, y) = 8 + 1.25x + 2.50(y - 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of 12 inch cheese pizza = $8

Each additional inch cost $2.50

Each additional topping cost $1.25

The cost equation :

Let x = additional topping ; y = diameter of pizza, cost of pizza = C

C(x, y) = cost of 12-inch + (cost of additional topping * number of additional topping) + (cost per additional diameter * extra diameter)

C(x, y) = 8 + 1.25x + 2.50(y - 12)

answer:   x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11

step-by-step explanation:

x² - 6x + 9 = 11

(x - 3)² = 11

x - 3 = ±√11

    x = 3 ± √11

x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11
