Two friends are collecting cards. frank has 7 more than half the number of cards as his friend. together they have 42 cards. how many cards does each friend have?

The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Two friends are collecting cards. Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend. Together they have 42 cards. How many cards does each friend have?

Let

x ----> the number of cards that Frank has

y ----> the number of cards that his friend has

we know that

Together they have 42 cards

----> equation A

Frank has 6 more than half the number of cards as his friend

---> equation B

Solve the system by substitution    

Substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y

Find the value of x

therefore

The number of cards Frank has is 18 and the number of cards his friend has is 24.

< coa = 150 ( given)

as ba and bc are tangents

so oc and oa is perpendicular to cb and ab respectively because in circle normal passes through centre

so in quadrilateral oabc

< coa + < oab + < ocb + < abc = 360

150 +90+90 + < abc = 360

330 + < abc = 360

< abc = 360 -330 = 30

so < abc = 30

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
