Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first let's convert the equation to y=2/3x+5

since the line is perpendicular we know that m=-3/2=1.5. now we just need to plug these numbers into an equation.

3=(-1.5)1+b

multiply.

3=-1.5+b

now add 1.5 to both sides of the equation.

4.5=b

change that into a fraction.

9/2.

now using 9/2 as b and -3/2 as m we have our equation:

Janie and Jasmine are playing three games at an arcade. Each of the games requires either 2, 3, or 4 tokens. The girls plan to p

Answer:

m+2n+2p=16 tokens or m+2(n+p)= 16 tokens

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must understand how many tokens they have.

Janie played the 3-token game four times, so she used 12 tokens (3n x 4 = 12). Jasmine played the 4-token game five times, so she used 20 tokens (4p x 5 = 20).

Added up, the girls have 32 tokens (12+20 = 32 tokens (t)).

In order to play a round of the three games, 9 tokens are required (m+n+p = 9 / 2+3+4 = 9) by each girl. (32t-18t=14) 14 tokens are left after taking a ride in every game each. 14 left divided by 2 will leave 7 more tokens for each girl. You can split these 7 tokens into an n+p = 7 tokens

Thus,

Each girl can ride as follows:

m+2n+2p=16 tokens or m+2(n+p)= 16 tokens
