The equation may also have one common root or no real roots. This gives the maximum number of points where the parabola<span> intersect as </span>2<span>. ... When that is the case, the twp </span>parabolas<span> intersect at 4 </span>distinct<span> points. The maximum number of points of intersection of </span>two distinct parabolas<span> is 4.</span>
<span> If Jim has x football cards</span>
<span>He will have 5x baseballs cards</span>
Thus
<span> x + 5x = 120 >
total # of cards</span>
<span> 6x = 120</span>
<span> x= 120/6 =
20</span>
<span> so Jim has 5x
baseball cards = 20*5 =100 baseball cards</span>
<span> </span>
Well it looks really simple I'm gonna go with 5
x = age of Alex
4x + x = 70
5x = 70
x = 14 = Alex's age
4x = 56 = Alex's uncle's age
I found the answer to the same question you have.
