Ok so in order to do this, you have to set up an equation. Let's make a=the score of the first test and b=the score of the second test. (You can choose different variables, it doesn't matter.) It says the sum of the two equals 170. So, a+b=170. It also says that the score of the first was 6 less than the second. This can be shown as a=b-6. Now you can plug this in for a in your original equation. It will look like:

(b-6)+b=170

You can solve for b.

2b-6=170
2b=176
b=88

Since you want a, plug into either equation for b. I'll use the second one.

a=88-6

So, a=82

Ou pick a card at random. Without putting the first card back, you pick a second card at random.
Arte-miy333 [17]
If you cards are only 5,6,7, then the probability of getting even, then even would be zero.

The directions say that the card is not replaced. Therefore, once you pick the 6, there would be no more even cards.
