Astack of cards contains 17 red cards and 9 black cards. what are the odds against drawing a red card?
a. 9: 17
b. 17: 9
c. 9: 26
d. 17: 26

To find the probability of choosing a red card we need to add both the cards so we have a total amount of cards.

17 + 9 = 26

Since, the question is asking the probability of choosing a RED card then the probability is a 17/26 chance. The answer choices are written as ratios. The ratio that is the same to 17/26 is [ D. 17:26 ]

Best of Luck!

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
