Matt has c baseball cards, and Jen has 9 fewer than 5 times as many cards as Matt. Jen gives Matt 14 cards. How many cards does Jen have now?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Jen has 5c -23 cards now

Step-by-step explanation:

Matt has c baseballs.

Jen has 9 fewer than 5 times as Matt.

Mathematically, what Jen has will be 5c -9 baseballs

Now, Jen gives Matt 14 cards. This means that she lost 14 of her cards and we are going to subtract.

The number of cards she has now is thus 5c-9-14 = 5c -23 cards
