Josh and Ethan have a total of 70 baseball cards between the two of them. Josh has sixteen more than twice the number of cards Ethan has. Write and solve an equation to find the number of baseball cards each has.

j + e = 70

j = 2e + 16

e = 18

j = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from the question

j + e = 70 eqn 1

j = 2e + 16 eqn 2

j = josh card

e = ethan's card

rewrite equation 2

j -2e = 16 eqn 3

subtract equation 3 from 1

3e = 54

e = 18

substitute for e in equation 1

j = 70 - 18 = 52

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
