Step-by-step explanation:
you mean, what is the price of a pizza, right ? and I guess it is pizza slices ...
1 hamburger = $2.50
5 hamburgers = 5×1 hamburger = 5×2.5 = $12.50
that leaves for the 11 pizzas (slices)
40 - 12.5 = $27.50
so, 1 pizza (slice) is
27.5 / 11 = $2.50
Answer:
One hamburger costs $2.50
One pizza also costs $2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say Nigel is the one purchasing lots of food for no reason.
Nigel bought 11 pizzas and 5 hamburgers for $40 (DAMMMM WHAT COUPON IS THAT??)
We can write this algebraically:
11p + 5b = 40
We know that the price of 1 Hamburger is $2.50.
Now we can plug that into out equation and find the price of one pizza:
11p + 5(2.50) = 40
11p + 12.5 = 40
11p = 27.5
p = 2.5
Now, we have the price of one pizza, $2.50
