Mike is buying a large pizza. the pizza cost $8.00 plus $1.00 for each additional topping

The pizza costs 8 dollars plus 1 dollar per additional toppings
additional toppings = x

1x + 8 is your expression

so if he has 10 toppings on the pizza, the pizza will cost 18 dollars

hope this helps

I’m going to infer you said parallel.solve for yy= -1/2x+7/4lines that are parallel have the same slope, different y intercept.so we know m is -1/2then from there solve for y intercept.

Distance=slopeslope is -2/4which equals-1/2the distance between these two points is -1/2
