Harold had a summer lemonade stand where he sold small cups for $1.25 each and large cups for $2.50 each. He made $265. If Harold sold 88 small cups, find the number of large cups he sold.

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.
