Answer:
Cards with Mark = 30
Cards with Drew = 120
Cards with Katie = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is
Drew has 4 times as many baseball cards as Mark. Katie has 3 fewer than than half as many cards as Mark. In all they have 162 baseball cards. How many does each have?
Solution -
Let the number of cards with Mark be "X"
Number of cards with Drew = 4 *X = 4X
Number of Cards with Katies = 0.5 X -3
Sum of all the cards is equal to 162
X+4X + 0.5 X -3 = 162
5.5 X = 165
X = 30
Cards with Mark = 30
Cards with Drew = 4 * 30 = 120
Cards with Katei = 15-3 = 12
Yep it is greater. Hope this helps
The solution of the equation is x = -4/3.
<h3>What does it mean to solve an equation?</h3>
An equation represents equality of two or more mathematical expression.
Solutions to an equation are those values of the variables involved in that equation for which the equation is true.
WE have been given an equation as;
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
In an absolute value equation, we solve the original expression as our first equation. Our second one is that we multiply the right side by -1.
Case 1: original equation
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
x - 4 = 5x + 12
x - 5x = 12 + 4
-4x = 16
x = -4
Case 2: Opposite equation
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
x - 4 = - (5x + 12)
x - 4 = - 5x - 12
x + 5x = -12 + 4
6x = -8
x = -4/3
Now we have two solutions. We need to check for extraneous solutions because of all the manipulations;
Check:
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
use x = -4
|-4 - 4| = 5(-4) + 12
| -8 | = -20 + 12
8 = -8
Thus, it is Not a solution
Now, |x - 4| = 5x + 12
use x = -4/3
| -4/3 - 4| = 5( -4/3) + 12
|-16/3 | = -20/3 + 12
|-16/3 | = 16/3
16/3 = 16/3
Thus, it is the Solution.
