    So,

    Our total will be equal to 20. If we want 1 additional topping, we will have an additional $1.25. If we want 2 additional toppings, we will have an additional $2.50. So we can just multiply the number of additional toppings by 1.25 to get the additional amount.

    1.25x

    However, you will have already spent $15.

    1.25x + 15 = 20

    This is option B.

    P. S. You will be able to put exactly 4 additional toppings.

    B. because x is an unknown amount of toppings and its 1.25 per extra topping and you have to add 15 because you can't just buy toppings you have to buy the pizza
