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
(6x + 30)+(2x+6)= 180
8x +36= 180
8x= 144
X= 18
So 2x+6 = 42
And 6x+30 = 138
Answer:
1. 6x + 25
2. 60 + 28k
3. 5 + 19y
4. 3d + 1
5. 5v
6. w - 14.04
