At Pepes Pizzas, a new deal gives you 1 1/2 orders of wings for half the price of a single order. without the deal, a single order of wings cost $12. what is the cost of a single order of wings with the deal? please explain!

Respuesta :

Given price of single order of wings = $12

And also given that for half the price of single order, we will get [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] order of wings with new deal.

Let x be the price of wings with new deal.

Then [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] order of wings price = [tex]1\frac{1}{2}* x = \frac{3}{2}*x[/tex]

But we are getting at half price of single order = [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex] = $6

Hence [tex]\frac{3x}{2} =6[/tex]

               [tex]x=\frac{6*2}{3}  = 4$[/tex]

So with new deal, price of wings is 4$
