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:
8x + 12 = 12 + 8x
0 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute then simplify
7.71 feet is your answer.
Assume that the length of the rectangle is "l" and that the width is "w".
We are given that:
(1) The length is one more than twice the base. This means that:
l = 2w + 1 .......> equation I
(2) The perimeter is 92 cm. This means that:
92 = 2(l+w) ...........> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II to get the width as follows:
92 = 2(l+w)
92 = 2(2w+1+w)
92/2 = 3w + 1
46 = 3w + 1
3w = 46-1 = 45
w = 45/3
w = 15
Substitute with w in equation I to get the length as follows:
l = 2w + 1
l = 2(15) + 1
l = 30 + 1 = 31
Based on the above calculations:
length of base = 31 cm
width of base = 15 cm
