Answer:

33 cards in all

Explanation:

Martha can make 5 cards in one hour.

She already has 3 cards.

Set the equation. Let x = amount of hours, and y = total cards made:

y = 5x + 3

We know that the amount of hours (x) is 6. Plug in 6 for x in the equation:

y = 5(6) + 3

Simplify. Follow PEMDAS. First multiply, then add:

y = 5(6) + 3

y = 30 + 3

y = 33

Martha can make 33 cards in 6 hours
