Step-by-step explanation:
(40 - x) represents A. the number of undamaged cards
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Maria has a total of 40 cards out of which x number of cards are damaged so 40 - x cards are undamaged. The value of an undamaged card is 5 dollars whereas every damaged card has a value of 3 dollars.
Step 2; We need to determine what each term in equation 5(40−x)+3x represents. The equation will give us how much total value Maria's card collection has.
The first term 5 (40 - x) signifies the total value of the undamaged cards in the deck where (40 - x) equals the total number of undamaged cards.
The second term represents the total value of the undamaged cards.
So the second factor of the first term i.e (40 - x) represents the amount of undamaged cards in her collection.
