Question 98245: I am struggling with putting word problems into the right format. Here's another that I cant seem to figure out.
Michael has $10 to spend for pizza. The local pizza place charges $6 for a plain cheese pizza, plus $1.50 for each additional topping. What is the greatest number of toppings he can order?
Thank you in advance.

6+1.5X=10
1.5X=10-6
1.5X=4
X=4/1.5
X=2.666 OR 2 ADDITIONAL TOPPINGS CAN BE ORDERED.
