let
x represents the number of pizzas delivered
y represents how much money he would make from x pizzas delivered
y = 50 + 3x
is the function that describes how much money he would make for x pizzas delivered.
For delivering 16 pizzas: x = 16
y = 50 + 3*16
y = 50 + 48
y = $98
The pizza delivery man will make $98 after delivering 16 pizzas in one shift.
