Complete question :
designs a board game in which a card is drawn on each turn. • A blue card means move forward 4 squares. • A red card means move back 6 squares. Liam suggests adding some other cards to Sia's game Part A Liam explains that drawing a yellow card is equivalent to drawing a blue card followed by a red card. How many spaces forward or backward does a player move after drawing a yellow card? Justify your answer.
Answer:
2 squares backward
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the rule :
Blue card = 4 squares forward
Red card = 6 squares backward
Yellow card = drawing a blue followed by a red
Spaces moved after drawing a yellow card:
Yellow equals :
Blue = + 4 squares ; then
Red = - 6 squares
Net total movement :
Blue + red
+4 + (-6)
4 - 6
- 2
2 squares backward
Corresponding measures have the same ratio.
.. (x -1)/4 = (2x +1)/10
.. 5(x -1) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . . multiply by 20
.. 5x -5 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. x = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 5 -4x
x = 7
Ok, here we go:
5 cars total.
1. Rachel - first car in line, yellow, SUV
2. blue car (Rachel is in front of the blue car), convertible, Anton
3. minivan - third car in line, Diego
4. white car, sedan, Ingrid
5. green car, immediately behind white car, Yuna, pickup
We know that Rachel is first, a blue car is second and the minivan is third. We know that 3, 4 cannot be a convertible since one is a minivan and the other is a sedan. We also know that a yellow car is in front of the convertible.
Based off of that we know that car 5 cannot be a convertible since 4 is white and not yellow. So 1 or 2 is the convertible and SUV. But we know that Rachel is in front of a blue car and the yellow car is in front of a convertible so that makes car #2 the blue convertible and car #1 the yellow SUV.
Fill in what you do know and start to eliminate the outliers. Hope that helps.
