7. A card is randomly drawn from a standard deck of shuffled cards. What are the ODDS that the card drawn is a Letter card?
A. 12.5%
B. 75%
C. 25%
D. 44%

There are 16 total "letter cards" (1 ace and 3 face cards per suit), so the probability of drawing a letter card is 16/52 = 4/13.

There are 52 - 16 = 36 non-letter cards, with probability 36/52 = 9/13 of being drawn.

Then the odds of drawing a letter card is the ratio of these probabilities,

(4/13) / (9/13) = 4/9 ≈ 44%

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
