The cost of an icee is $.40 less than half the cost of the pizza. Mrs. Tangier bought three ICs and two pizzas and spent a total of $12.03. How much is the cost of an Icee?
If a pizza costs x, then
an icee costs x/2 - 0.40
So,
3(x/2 - 0.40) + 2x = 12.03
Now solve for x, and then find the price of the icee.
