Read and follow the directions below. 1. imagine a deck of 52 cards, ranging from twos through the face cards to aces, all in four equal suits-hearts, diamonds. clubs. and spades. 2. remove all of the red suit cards. 3. add back only the hearts. 4. remove the jacks, queens, and kings. which of the following tells the number of cards now in the deck? a) 30 cards b) 35 cards c) 40 cards d) 45 cards

 A) 30 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 52 cards

2. subtract red suit cards: 52 - 26 = 26

3. add back the hearts: 26 + 13 = 39

4. remove the 3 remaining jacks, 3 remaining queens, & 3 remaining kings:   39 - 9 = 30

There are 30 cards remaining

The inequality shows that there x makes up the 10-point scores, and y makes up the 20-point scores. To know which of the choices cannot be true, we can analyze each choice:

A. It is not possible to have a fraction of a score, so this must be true.
B. They must be positive numbers. 
C. Similar to B, they must be positive numbers.
D. Even with a value less than 5, the inequality can be met. 

Therefore, the correct answer is D.
