Marcus have 44 CDs, Sherry have 34 CDs and Kristen have 22 CDs.
Let us assume that Kristen has x numbers of CD's.
According to the provided situation,
Marcus have twice the number of CDs as Kristen.
Number of CDs of Marcus = 2x
The number of CDs of Sherry is 12 more than the CDs of Kristen
Number of CDs of of Sherry = 12 + x
Total number of CDs combined are 100.
So, we can write,
x + 2x + (12 + x) = 100
4x + 12 = 100
Any equation with the highest degree of variable as one, just like the above equation is called Linear Equation.
Further solving the Equation,
4x + 12 = 100
4x = 88
x = 22
The number of CDs that Kristen has is 22.
The number of CDs that Marcus have is 2(22).
The number of CDs Marcus gas is 44.
The number of CDs Sherry has is (12 + x) which is equal to 34.
The number of CDs Kristen, Marcus and Sherry have is 22, 44 and 34 respectively.
