(b) If all matching cards will decrease her score by 12, what are the matching cards
See attachment for cards
Answer:
(a) 9 card number 2 or 6 card number 3
(b) 6 card number -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The number on the cards are: 2, 3, -6 and 4
Solving (a): An increment of 18
From the card numbers attached, there are 3 positive numbers and 1 negative number
If any of the card numbers is to increase her score, then the card number must be positive. So, we have: card numbers 2, 3 and 4 that fit in this category.
Next, for a card number to give an increment of 18; the card number must be a factor of 18.
So, we have:
Only 2 and 3 are factors of 18.
So, Natalie cards are: 9 card number 2 or 6 card number 3
Solving (b): A decrement of 12
If any of the card numbers is to decrease her score, then the card number must be negative. So, we have: card -6 that fit in this category.
Next, is to check if -12 is divisible by -6 (-12 means decrement of 12)
So, we have:
<em>So, Natalie cards are: 6 card number -6</em>
