Well first do 20 children minus 8 girls to find how many boys there are:
20-8=16
So there are 16 boys. Therefore we can write the ratio of girls to boys as:
8/16
Then we can simplify this ratio by dividing it by 8 to get:
1/2
So the answer is the ratio of girls to boys in the group in simplest form is 1/2.

Simplify. Assume that no denominator is equal to zero. ([3^2]^3g^3h^4)^2
mariarad [96]

Answer:

531,441·g^6·h^8

Step-by-step explanation:

The operative rule of exponents is ...

(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)

Working from the inside out, according to the order of operations, we get ...

= (9^3·g^3·h^4)^2

= 729^2·g^(3·2)·h^(4·2)

= 531,441·g^6·h^8

Graphing this equation -x+4y=8

The linear form of that equation is y=1/4x+2. Your y-intercept should be 2 and the slope is 1/4.
