Question

Answer 1

• 26 + 8x.
• x = 15.

Explanation:

Marise has 26 pokemon cards. Marisa claims that he will have 146 or more cards after she receives her shipment of 8 packs of cards.

So, we have to make a unknown value on 8.

• 8x.

Now, we have to find out that unknown value:

• 26 + 8x
• = 26 + 8(15)
• = 26 + 120
• = 146.
• x = 15.

There will be 15 cards in Marisa's 8 boxes.
