If Ali has x cards, then Belinda has 2x cards.
If Ali has x cards, then Charlie has x+5 cards.
2x (Belinda) + x+5 (Charlie) + x (Ali) = 33 (total)
2x + x+5 + x = 33
Now simplify the equation... x+x+5 can be simplified as 2x+5.
2x+5 plus 2x can become 4x+5.
So their total number is 4x+5.
So 4x+5=33.
You want to isolate the variables and numbers.
To remove the 5 from the left side, subtract 5 from both sides.
4x+5-5=4x - 33-5=28
So the equation now is 4x=28
To remove the 4, divide each side by 4.
4x÷4=x - 28÷4=7
So x equals 7, Ali has 7 cards.

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
first term a= 2
last term tn= 32
common ratio r= -2
number of terms
= tn=ar^n-1
32 = 2*(-2)^n-1
divide both sides by 2
32/2 = 2*(-2)^n-1/2
16 = (-2)^n-1
Then...use 16 in the power of 2
(-2)^4 = (-2)^n-1
The bases (-2), cancels out
so we have: 4 = n-1
collect like terms
4-1 = n
3 = n
n= 3
