Answer:
The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>
Two friends are collecting cards. Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend. Together they have 42 cards. How many cards does each friend have?
Let
x ----> the number of cards that Frank has
y ----> the number of cards that his friend has
we know that
Together they have 42 cards
----> equation A
Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend
---> equation B
Solve the system by substitution
Substitute equation B in equation A
solve for y
<em>Find the value of x</em>
therefore
The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.
