We can solve this problem by setting up an equation. In the beginning, Xian and Kai has got respectively 56 and 80 stamps. Let's denote the number of the month, when they will have the same amount of cards with an x. Then after x months, Xian and Kai will respectively have 56 + 12x and 80 + 8x cards.

By setting up an equation, we can write that:

56 + 12x = 80 + 8x

4x = 24

x = 6

The correct answer is after six months they will have the same amount of cards. After 6 months, Xian and Kai will each have 128 cards.

After 6 months.
Difference in their original number of stamps: 80-56=24
Difference in the number of stamps they receive each month: 12-8=4
Number of months to have same number of stamps: 24/4=6

They will each have 6x12+56=128 stamps

In paragraph 8, the father refers to the snake as his “enemy”. What connotation, or attitude and feelings associated with a word
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The word "enemy" usually has a negative connotation with it, referring to something described as an "enemy" as something or somebody you don't like and usually have bad relations with, which an enemy can also be described as having negative intentions and being hostile. Therefore, the father probably dislikes the snake for multiple reasons, as snakes are known to be dangerous, and the father acknowledges it.

Also, depending on previous paragraphs, you may be able to conclude more and much clearer insight on the father's views and why he dislikes the snake and why he sees it as his "enemy".
