This involves basic arithmetic calculations and simultaneous equations.
Adamu has 25 Cards
Let the following letters represent the number of cards each has;
A: ADAMU
F: FUNKE
S: SHEHU
K: KWAME
T: TANKO
- If adamu gives funke 5 cards, he will have as many as tanko. Thus;
A - 5 = T --- eq 1
- If funke gives adamu 4 cards, he will have as many as kwame. Thus;
A + 4 = K --- eq 2
- Funke and adamu have a total of 13 more cards than the total that kwame and tanko have. Thus;
A + F = K + T + 13 --- eq 3
- Adamu has 2 cards more than what Shehu has. Thus;
A - 2 = S --- eq 4
From online research, the Total Number of cards is 134 and not 133. Thus;
A + F + K + S + T = 134 --- eq 5
Let's put A - 5 = T and A + 4 = K in eq 3 to get;
A + F = (A + 4) + (A - 5) + 13
A + F = 2A + 12
F = 2A - A + 12
F = A + 12
Let's put A - 2 = S ; F = A + 12 ; A - 5 = T and A + 4 = K into eq 5 to get;
A + A + 12 + A + 4 + A - 2 + A - 5 = 134
Simplifying gives;
5A + 9 = 134
5A = 134 - 9
5A = 125
A = 125/5
A = 25
Adamu has 25 Cards
The answer is number 3. y=(-2/3)x +5
6x^2 - 2x + 1 is a quadratic formula from the form ax^2 + bx + c. This form of equation represents a parabola.
Finding 6x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0, means that you need to find the zeroes of the equation.
Δ = b^2 - 4ac
If Δ>0, the equation admits 2 zeroes and 6x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 exists for 2 values of x.
If Δ<0, the equation doesn't admit any zero, and 6x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 doesn't exist since the parabola doesn't intersect with the axe X'X
If Δ=0, the equation admits 1 zero, which means that the peak of the parabola is touching the axe X'X.
In 6x^2 - 2x + 1, a=6, b=-2, and c =1.
Δ= b^2 - 4ac
Δ=(-2)^2 - 4(6)(1)
Δ= 4 - 24
Δ= -20
Δ<0 so the parabola doesn't intersect with the Axe X'X, which means there's no solution for 6x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0.
I've added a picture of the parabola represented by this equation under the answer.
Hope this Helps! :)
The formula of this equation would be

* 1.026^16 = 7,160.06
So from this equation we know that

Now we need to find the value of x, we need to multiply

* 1.026 16 times. Which will bring us to your answer. $
