Answer: 18 girls to 12 boys

Step-by-step explanation: We can write a ratio using the word "to", using a colon, or using a fraction bar.

Let's write the ratio using the word "to."

Since there are 18 girls and 12 boys,

we can write this as 18 girls to 12 boys.

So this would be our answer.

However, this can be reduced to 3 girls to 4 boys.

81a²-25 would be the answer I'm pretty sure. Hopefully I helped.

Find x if a] 5^x=625 root 5 b] 3^2x-1 = 243

katen-ka-za [31]

x=3, you can find this by using finding common bases for equation b because 243=3^5. Because of that you can get rid of three on both sides to get the equation 2x-1=5 and then just solve for x to get x=3. For the first equation 5^3=625 so that also proves x=3.

Sorry if my explanation is a little disorganized if you need more help feel free to ask

Find an equation for the inverse for each of the following.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

To solve these first swap x and y, solve for y and name it inverse function

3. y = -8x + 2

x = -8y + 2
8y = -x + 2
y = -x/8 + 2/8
y = -(18)x + 1/4

f⁻¹(x) = -(18)x + 1/4

-----------------------------------------

4. y = (2/3)x - 5

x = (2/3)y - 5
(2/3)y = x + 5
y = (3/2)x + (3/2)5
y = 1.5x + 7.5

f⁻¹(x) = 1.5x + 7.5

-----------------------------------------

5. f(x) = 2x² - 6

x = 2y² - 6
2y² = x + 6
y² = 1/2x + 3
y = $\sqrt{1/2x + 3}$

f⁻¹(x) = $\sqrt{1/2x + 3}$

-----------------------------------------

6. y = (x - 3)²

x = (y - 3)²
$\sqrt{x}$ = y - 3
y = 3 + $\sqrt{x}$

f⁻¹(x) = 3 + $\sqrt{x}$

How do I solve this

sdas [7]

$\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{2x}{x^2+2x-24}-\cfrac{x}{x^2-36}\quad 
\begin{cases}
x^2+2x-24\implies (x+6)(x-4)\\
--------------\\
x^2-36\implies x^2-6^2\\
(x-6)(x+6)
\end{cases}$

$\bf \cfrac{2x}{(x+6)(x-4)}-\cfrac{x}{(x-6)(x+6)}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{thus our LCD is}\\
(x-6)(x+6)(x-4)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[(x-6)2x]~-~[(x-4)x]}{(x-6)(x+6)(x-4)}\implies \cfrac{2x^2-12x-x^2+4x}{(x-6)(x+6)(x-4)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{x^2-8x}{(x-6)(x+6)(x-4)}$
