TE Irene has a collection of 32 dolls that have either blue eyes or green eyes. She has 14 more green-eyed dolls than blue-eyed dolls. How many dolls of each type does Irene have? Let x represent the number of green-eyed dolls. Let y represent the number of blue-eyed dolls.

The formula

x + y = 32

Find our X value

y + 14 = x

Sub for x

(y + 14) + y = 32

Remove Parathesis

y + 14 + y = 32

Add

2y + 14 = 32

Subtract

2y = 18

Divide

y = 9

Sub for y

x + 9 = 32

Subtract

x = 23

Double Check:

9 + 14 = 23

23 + 9 = 32

I hope this helps! :)

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
