Answer: If the radio boys to girls is 2:3 you can solve the problem with equivalent fractions: 2/3 = 8/x , to be equivalent you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number, which for this case has to be 4. The answer is: if there are 8 boys , there are 12 girls

If (1/4)^(x+y) = 256 and log₄(x-y) = 3, what are the exact values of x and y
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

x = 30 and y = -34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following functions

(1/4)^(x+y) = 256... 1

log₄(x-y) = 3.... 2

From equation 2;

x-y = 4³

x-y = 64

x = 64 + y ... 3

Substitutw 3 into 1

From 1:

(1/4)^(x+y) = 256

(1/4)^(64+y+y) = 256

(1/4)^(64+2y) = 256

Take log₄ of both sides

64+2y log₄ (1/4) = log₄256

-(64+2y) = 4log₄4

-(64+2y) = 4

64+2y = -4

2y = -4 - 64

2y = -68

y = -34

Since

x = 64 + y .

x = 64 - 34

x = 30

Hence x = 30 and y = -34

A kangaroo hopped 1/3 of the distance to the lake with her baby in her pouch. She hopped the remaining 7040 yards without her ba
Norma-Jean [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

she hopped 10560 MI to the lake because the remaining miles was the 7040 miles without her baby and if you do 7040 (the 2/3s) divided by 2 you would get 3520 which is the 1/3 of the distance to the lake so 7040 miles + 3520 miles equals 10560 miles hopped to the lake. Hope this helped ^_^
