Equations and relations

The total cost, T, of a large cheese pizza is $5 plus an additional

$1.5 for each topping (t).

1. Write an equation that represents the total cost, T, and the relation among the
toppings

2. If the total cost is $14, answer the following:

3. How many toppings can I get? Show all your work

4. If I ask for 3 toppings, how much I will pay? Show all your work

The total cost, T, of a large cheese pizza is $5 and a large

peperoni pizza is $6. If I planned to spend $98 answer the
following questions:
5. Write an equation that represents the total cost, T, and the
relation among the cheese pizza (x) and the peperoni pizza (p)

Determine if this pair of values could be the number of cheese pizzas and peperoni
pizzas bought with the money I have:
6. 5 cheese and 4 peperoni. Why?
7. 10 cheese and 7 peperoni. Why?
8. If a want 11 cheese pizza how many peperoni pizzas can I buy? Why?
9. If a want 7 peperoni pizza how many cheese pizzas can I buy? Why?

Jada plans to serve milk and healthy cookies for a book club
meeting. She is preparing 12 ounces of milk and 4 cookies per
person. Including herself, there are 15 people in the club. A package
of cookies contains 24 cookies and costs $4.50

The equation 2l + 2w =72 represents the

relationship between the length, L , and the width,
w , of a rectangle that has a perimeter of 72 units.
Considering that the length depends on the
measure of the width, and they have a linear
relationship:

20. Which is the slope?

21. What does the slope means (about the context)?
22. Which is the y- intercept? Explain what this value means.
23. Which is the x-intercept? Explain what this value means.
24. Graph the function. Scale the best so you can label the slope, the intercepts and the
axis.

Alex has $3500 and can make $60 per week shoveling snow at winter.
Consider that the variable y represents the total amount he can have,
and that x represents the time in weeks.

25. Write an equation that represents the situation.

26. Sketch the graph. Scale the best so you can label the slope, the intercepts and the axis.
27. Calculate the slope
28. What does slope means?
29. Which is the amount he has after 12 weeks of working?
30. How long it would take to have $5000.
31. Can you imagine another context in which you can use this equation?
System of equations:

For the following system of equations:

3" + 7% = −70
7" − 12% = 35

32. Solve it. Show all your work, the procedure you follow.

Consider the situation: At a restaurant the cost for a breakfast taco and a small glass
of milk is $2.10. The cost for 2 tacos and 3 small glasses of milk is $5.15.

33. Which pair of equations can be used to determine t, the cost of a taco, and m, the cost of a
small glass of milk?
34. Solve it. Show all your work, the procedure you follow.
35. Express the answer in the context
