It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1.

Given

Hans spent three days baking 224 cookies.

On the second day, he baked twice as many as he did on the first day.

On the third day, he baked half as many as he did on the first day.

Let x be the cookies that were made on the first day.

First day = x cookies

Second day = 2x cookies

Third day = x/2 cookies

Then the value of x will be.

[tex]\begin{aligned} \rm x + 2x + \dfrac{x }{2} &= 224\\\\2\rm x + 4x + x &= 448\\\\\rm 7x &= 448\\\\\rm x &= 64 \end{aligned}[/tex]

The cookies were made on the following day is

First day = 64 cookies

Second day = 128 cookies

Third day = 32 cookies
