The mess up occurs in one of the first things she says. She first claims that 7^2 +25^2 = 24^2
Wait a minute... slow your roll there.
25 is the hypotenuse, or the longest side of the triangle AND opposite the right angle (but we aren't supposed to know that yet).
The Pythagorean Theorem holds that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a & b are the legs of the triangle & c is the hypotenuse. So, she got the formatting correctly, but she switched 24 & 25.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
What do you need help with there is nothing here??
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Marcus has 494 cards.
Jorge has 988 cards.
Ren has 518 cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Marcus's cards.
M + J + R
(x) + (2x) + (x+24) = 2000
x + 2x + x + 24 = 2000
4x +24 =2000
4x = 1976
x = 494
