You have eight coins and a balance scale. The coins look alike, but one of them is a counterfeit. The counterfeit coin is lighter than the others. You may only use the balance scale two times. How can you find the counterfeit coin?

the answer would be c:   ax + b = ax + c

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

all you have to do is multiply them both to see how many out comes you can put:

3 x 2 = 6

you can make 6 diferent combinations of crusts and toppings.
