    Answer: 14

    Step-by-step explanation:

    All we need to do is to find x

    x + (2x - 6) = 36

    we expand the bracket first,

    x + 2x - 6 = 36

    Then we collect the like terms;

    x + 2x = 36 + 6

    3x = 42

    We divide bothside of the equation by 3 to get our x

    3x/3 = 42/3

    x = 14

    Therefore Aleera is having 14 baseball cards.
