A local pizza shop has a membership program for frequent buyers. The membership costs $20 per month and members get a discounted price of $1.25 per slice of pizza. Jaya purchased a membership to this pizza shop. How much would Jaya have to pay the pizza shop if she bought 16 slices of pizza this month? What would be the monthly cost for xx slices of pizza?
Answer
Attempt 1 out of 2
Monthly cost with 16 slices:
Monthly cost with x slices:
For Jaya, she purchased a membership for $20 per month and gets a discounted price of $1.25 per slice. So for 16 slices of pizza, she would have to pay $1.25 x 16 = $<<1.25*16=20>>20.
For xx slices of pizza, if the cost per slice is $1.25, then the monthly cost would be $1.25 * xx = $1.25xx.
