You take these elements and stick them on top of a cardboard piece. The friendship card is done.

But it doesn't have to be a pain to solve a few problems. It's actually quite simple once you figure it out. An algebraic equation is an equation that includes one or more variables. These equations can be solved as long as the number of variables does not exceed the number of equations.

The iPhone X's "notch" is now possibly as notorious as Apple's decision to cut ties with the headphone jack.
