We need to write system of equations for this problem. Reading text we write 1 equation by 1.
first lets name our variables
x - Kiana cards
y - Gary cards
z - Monty cards
m - Willa cards
x = y-3 which we can write as y = x+3
z = x + 7
m = 2z
x + y + z + m = 74
I think easiest way to solve this is to express all variables in last equation and solve for x.
x + x+3 + x + 7+ 2x + 14= 74
5x = 50
x = 10
now we just calculate cards given to each friend
y = 13
z = 17
m = 34
Answer:
2j+8
Step-by-step explanation:
2(j+4) . use distributive property
2j+8
Multiply the first equation by 2
4x-6y=16
Then add the equations to eliminate x
4x-6y=16
-4x+5y=-10
-y=6
y-=6
Plug the y value in
2x-3(-6)=8
2x+18=8
2x=-10
x=-5
Final answer: (-5,-6)
