A pizza restaurant charges a flat fee for a plain cheese pizza. There is an extra charge for any additional toppings. The cost of a pizza can be I determined from the equation C = 0.5m + 5, where m is the number of
additional toppings and C is the cost of the pizza ordered. What are the
interpretations of slope and y-intercept in the equation?
A
slope: cost per additional topping
y-intercept: cost of the plain pizza
B. slope: cost per additional topping
y-intercept: cost of the first topping
C. slope: cost of the plain pizza
y-intercept: cost per additional topping
D. slope: ratio of cost of additional topping to the cost of the plain pizza
y-intercept: cost of an additional topping
