Answer:
If you really meant that the number of dogs is 12 greater than 3 times the number of cats then:
3 cats
Step-by-step explanation:
21= number of dogs
c = number of cats
21 = 12 + (3c)
3c = 9
c = 3
Answer:
y = 2x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have SIMILAR <em>RATE OF</em><em> </em><em>CHANGES</em><em> </em>[<em>SLOPES</em>], so 2 remains the same:
8 = 2[8] + b
↑
16
-8 = b
y = 2x - 8 >> Parallel Equation

Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The two indicated angles are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal
3x+50 = 6x-10
Subtract 3x from each side
3x-3x+50 = 6x-10-3x
50 = 3x-10
Add 10 to each side
50+10 = 3x-10+10
60 = 3x
Divide each side by 3
60/3 = 3x/3
20 =x
Answer:
A) there are 13 cards per suit and 4 suits, a total of 52 cards. So there are 13*2=26 red cards in a deck of 13*4=52, the odds of drawing a red card are 26/52=1/2=50%
B) Again outside knowledge is required, you name four suits but not their colors. Nonetheless, unless this is a very unusual deck, the diamonds and hearts are red, spades and clubs black. So that’s 2 red suits out of 4 suits. 2/4=1/2=50%
C) there are 2 black suits and 2 red suits. The odds of getting a red card are 2/(2+2)=2/4=1/2 or 50%
Each of those answers is a different way to figure the odds, they come out the same each time, as expected.
However, what if we assume that you mean… when drawing a 5 card poker hand? Or when Penn Jillette asks you “is this your card?”+ Or if you draw every card in the deck? Or if you are playing some macabre game in which you die if you draw the ace of spades but you may only stop drawing if you draw a red card?
There are myriad possible meanings to your question, I’ve just made the simplest assumption and given the odds on that… but my answer is woefully incomplete.
+ Hint, when Penn Jillette asks you “is this your card” your card is always the 3 of clubs. So… 0% chance.
