17 Is not the right answer whats the right answer
8^15 ÷ 1/8^3 = 8^15 x 8^3=8^18
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

To find the median you have to put all the numbers in order from smallest to largest and find the one that's in the middle.
All of the numbers listed are already in order, and the one that lies in the middle is 40. So the answer is 40.
Answer:
x = 2 or
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 2)(x + 7) = 0
x - 2 = 0
Add 2 to both sides
x - 2 + 2 = 2 + 0
x = 2
OR
x + 7 = 0
Subtract 7 from both sides
x + 7 - 7 = 0-7
x = -7
Therefore
x = 2 or
x = -7
