<u>Answer:</u>
5, 7
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The mode of the numbers is 5, which means that 5 should be the most common card (highest frequency). Therefore the cards should have at least one more 5 among them.
Considering that 5 is one of the hidden cards and x is the other,
• Using the equation for the mean:


⇒ 
⇒ 
This means 5 and 7 are the hidden cards.
Final result :
9y - 17z - 2
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
1
Simplify —
3
Equation at the end of step 1 :
1
— • (27y - 51z - 6)
3
Step 2 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
27y - 51z - 6 = 3 • (9y - 17z - 2)
Final result :
9y - 17z - 2
2/3b = 12
First you have to get rid of 2/3, so you multiply both sides by its reciprical:
(3/2) 2/3b = 12 (3/2) -->b = 36/2 --> b = 18
