Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
4 ^(1/2x) = 256
Rewriting 256 as a power of 4
4 ^(1/2x) = 4^4
Since the bases are the same, the exponents are the same
1/2x = 4
Multiply each side by 2
1/2x *2 = 4*2
x=8

Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
Let:
Number of girls invited = x
Number of boys = x +20
3/4 of boy showed up
2/3 of girls showed up
Exactly 19 did not show up
Therefore, we could say:
Fraction of boys that didn't show up = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4
Fraction of girls that didn't show up = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3
That is,
[1/4 *(x + 20)] + [1/3*x] = 19
[(x + 20) / 4] + x /3 = 19
(3(x + 20) + 4x) / 12 = 19
3x + 60 + 4x = 228
7x = 228 - 60
7x = 168
x = 168 / 7
x = 24
Number of girls, x = 24
Number of boys, x + 20 = 24 + 20 = 44
Total friends invited = (24 + 44) = 68
