Let x  =  the numbers of girls
thus
the numbers of boys  = 2x 
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 9
2x = 2 . 9 =18
girls  =  9  &  boys  = 18

What would this be using a positive exponent?
tatuchka [14]

1 / 9^4 and 1 / 6^3

This is because in order to make a negative exponent into a postive exponent, you need to make it into a fraction, 1 as the top number, and the negative exponent as a postive one.

For example, 6^-3 becomes 1 / 6^3.

I hope I helped.

7) A photo booth charges a $500 fee for two hours at a party, plus $50 per additional hour. Cindy doesn't want to spend more tha
jeyben [28]

Since the photo booth charges a $500 fee for two hours at the party and an additional 50 dollars per hour, we have:

50x+500=C

Where x is the hours stayed and C is the total cost. Since Cindy doesn't want to spend more than 700 dollars, we have:

50x+500=700 \implies\\ 50x=200\implies\\ x=4

So she spent an additional 4 hours on the rental.
