money The graph below shows the price of nut box
- 00:23
with dollars on the horizontal axis and nut bucks on
- 00:27
the vertical axis The wife The exchange rate is something
- 00:31
nut bucks per dollar Thanks Not fucked for gone nut
- 00:36
bucks I get a dollar bill All right Well first
- 00:39
of all this nicky nut place seems like a total
- 00:41
scam to us Uh hard earned us dollars in exchange
- 00:45
for nut bucks Really Guess they're appropriately named on lee
- 00:49
and nut is going to buy any of these things
- 00:51
huh So we've got a graph of a line and
- 00:54
we're told that the for rosana ll access represents dollars
- 00:58
This thing So this is two dollars four dollars and
- 01:01
so on And nut bucks or shown by the vertical
- 01:04
axis Two bucks for bugs No And we need to
- 01:07
find the exchange rate Something tells us a phone call
- 01:10
To our local currency exchange gonna do the trick So
- 01:15
what were sneakily being asked to find here is the
- 01:18

- 01:22
really referring to slopes and small slope is a rate
- 01:25
change And that key word her should tell us that

we need to create a fraction well with nut bucks
- 01:30
on top and dollars on the bottom But we know
- 01:33
how many nut bucks is her dollar got it That's
- 01:36
what we're gonna do All right well we can pick
- 01:38
a sample point Say this one it's easiest to go
- 01:41
with this one since it's exactly one dollar and we
- 01:43
won't need to simplify our fraction Though it one dollar
- 01:46
were at three nut box we put the free over
- 01:49
the one and looks like the exchange rate is three
- 01:52
nut bucks per dollar So yeah three is our answer
- 01:56
Yeah it definitely seems like a rip off but at
- 01:57
least you can get something for your nut box We're
- 01:59
still trying to figure out what to do with all
- 02:01
those british fifty pound notes that we've had sitting in 00:02:03.886 --> [endTime] our sock drawer since last spring
