Adding additional toppings to a large cheese pizza cost $1.39 per topping. The equation 14.85 + 1.39x = 20 can be used to determine the number of toppings that can be added to a large cheese pizza for a total of $20. Jacob solves the equation and says you can get 4 toppings added if you have $20. Is this reasonable? Justify your response. If the answer is not reasonable, identify the error and then calculate the correct solution.
14.85
+ 1.39x = 20
1.39x
= 20 – 14.85
1.39x
= 5.15
1.39
/ 1.39 = 5.15 / 1.39
x
= 3.70
