Answer:

7 are boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.

b+g=26

g=3b-2

Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.

b+(3b-2)=26

Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.

b+3b-2=26

Combine like terms.

4b-2=26

Add 2 to both sides.

4b=28

Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.

b=7

Which expression is equivalent to (x^4/3 x^2/3)^1/3?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: x^{\frac{2}{3} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We have several properties of exponents in use here. The two that are used are:

(x^{a})(x^{b}) = x^{a + b} <em>(Exponents with the same base that are being multiplied together can have the exponents added)</em>

(x^{a})^{b} = x^{(a)(b)} <em>(A base raised to a power, and then raised to another power means that you can multiply the exponents to get the same result as doing inside operations and then outside operations)</em>

<em />

Let's apply it!

First, let's simplify what's inside the parenthesis.

x^{\frac{4}{3} } x^{\frac{2}{3} } <em>(Remember, they have the same base of "x", so we can add the exponents)</em>

x^{\frac{4}{3} + \frac{2}{3} } = x^{\frac{6}{3} } = x^{2}

Now we have (x^{2})^{\frac{1}{3} }. Let's use the second rule.

(x^{2})^{\frac{1}{3} } = x^{\frac{2}{3} }

Hope this helps! :^)
