A card is picked from a standard deck of 52 cards. Determine the odds against and the odds in favor of selecting a red face card (king, queen, or jack ).

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of cards in the deck  = 52

The total number of red( Diamond + Hearts)  face cards in the given deck

= 2 Red Queens +  2 Red jacks + 2 Red kings  = 6 cards

Let E : Event of picking a red face card from the deck

Now , P( any event)  =

So, here P(Picking a red face card)  =

Hence, the probability of picking a red face card from the deck  is

Now, as we know P (any event NOT A)  = 1 - P(any event A)

So, P(NOT Picking a red face card) = 1 - P(Picking a red face card)

Hence,  the probability of NOT picking a red face card from the deck  is

answer: c

substitute in the values.

for a:

f(0) = 0 + 9

f(0) = 9

a is a solution.

for b:

f(7) = 14 + 9

f(7) = 23

b is a solution.

for c:

f (3) = 6 + 9

f(3) = 15

c is not a solution. it's supposed to be 14.

for d:

f(2) = 4 + 9

f(2)= 13

d is a solution.
