There are a total of 36 cards in aleera’s collection. the number of baseball cards is 6 less than twice the number of football cards. the equation below represents the situation, where x represents the number of football cards. x+(2x-6)=36 how many baseball cards does aleera have?

14

Step-by-step explanation:

All we need to do is to find x

x + (2x - 6) = 36

we expand the bracket first,

x + 2x - 6 = 36

Then we collect the like terms;

x + 2x = 36 + 6

3x = 42

We divide bothside of the equation by 3 to get our x

3x/3 = 42/3

x = 14

Therefore Aleera is having 14 baseball cards.

1) is right

step-by-step explanation:

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9
