the price of a specialty pizza is $5 more than the price of a cheese pizza, c. caterina orders 2 specialty pizzas for a total of $30. she wants to know the price of a cheese pizza. which model represents the situation?
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Analyze the price of specialty pizza
The price of a specialty pizza is (c + 5) (since it's $5 more than cheese pizza price (c)).
Step2: Analyze the total cost for 2 specialty pizzas
Caterina orders 2 specialty pizzas. So the total cost is ((c + 5)+(c + 5)), and this total is $30.
Answer:
The first model (with two rectangles labeled (c + 5) each and total length 30) represents the situation.
