We base ourselves in the one piece of crucial evidence: She has 2 quarters.
-from the rest of the problem, we know that she has 2 more NICKEL'S than QUARTERS,
(2 Quarters + 2 = 4 nickels)
she has 3 fewer nickels than dimes,
DIME - 3 = Nickels
D - 3 = 4
D = 7
7 dimes
(70 cents)
4 nickels
(20 cents)
2 quarters
(25 cents)
115 cents
or $1.15
Hey there!!
Steps to get into equation which is perpendicular:
- The slope of a perpendicular line is always negative reciprocal.
- Take the point and get that into point-slope form.
- y - y = m ( x - x )
- Convert this equation into slope-intercept form.
'm' is the slope.
We have the slope as 1/3
The perpendicular slope would be -3.
Point slope:
The point = (-2,2)
y - 2 = -3( x - (-2) )
y - 2 = -3(x+2)
y - 2 = -3x -6
Adding 2 on both sides:
y = -3x - 4
<em>Hence, the equation would be : </em>
<u><em>y = -3x - 4 </em></u>
Hope it helps!
Answer:
6 units is the answer im pretty sure
