Pizza costs $1.50 per slice. Use a table and an equation to represent the relationship between the number of slices of pizza bought and the total cost. (2 points)
Let "x" represent the number of slices of pizza bought, and "y" represent the total cost.
Table:
x | y
--------------
1 | 1.50
2 | 3.00
3 | 4.50
4 | 6.00
... | ...
Equation:
y = 1.50x
To represent the relationship between the number of slices of pizza bought and the total cost, we can create a table and an equation.
Table:
Number of Slices | Total Cost
------------------------------
1 | $1.50
2 | $3.00
3 | $4.50
4 | $6.00
... | ...
Equation:
Let "s" represent the number of slices of pizza and "c" represent the total cost.
The equation can be written as:
c = 1.50s
This equation shows that the total cost (c) is equal to the price per slice ($1.50) multiplied by the number of slices bought (s).
To represent the relationship between the number of slices of pizza bought and the total cost, we can use a table and an equation.
First, let's create a table:
Number of Slices | Total Cost
-----------------|-----------
0 | $0.00
1 | $1.50
2 | $3.00
3 | $4.50
. | .

. | .
In the table above, we list the number of slices bought in the first column and the corresponding total cost in the second column.
To find the total cost for a given number of slices, we can use the equation:
Total Cost = Number of Slices * Cost per Slice
In this case, the cost per slice is $1.50. So, the equation becomes:
Total Cost = 1.50 * Number of Slices
The equation represents the relationship between the number of slices bought and the total cost. By substituting different values for the number of slices, we can find the corresponding total cost.
