Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The number of pets Darlene is adopting = 1
The number of kittens =8
The number of puppies = 6
Therefore, the total number of pets is given by :-
[tex]\text{Total Pets}=\text{Number of kittens +Number of Puppies}\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Total Pets}=8+6=14 [/tex]
Now, if Darlene is adopting only one pet then the number of choices Darlene has = 14
Hence, the number of ways can she choose a pet to adopt = 14.
