Step-by-step explanation:

You want the number of my cats when that number is "one-half of my cats plus seven".

Setup

Let the number of cats be represented by c. Then the description of the number of cats is ...

  c = c/2 +7

Solution

Multiplying by 2 gives ...

  2c = c +14

  c = 14 . . . . . . . subtract c

The nemesis has 14 cats.
