Answer:

72 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

120 * .60. That's how you solve it! Hope it helps!

Further explanation:

To get .60, you divide 3 by 5 which is .60

Then you multiply 120 times .60 and you'll get 72 which is 72 boys

Bonus: 120 - 72 = 48 girls!

Answer:

There are 45 boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to easily solvethis is by making equations, see below.

let \: b \: represent \: number \: of \: boys \\ let \: g \: represent \: number \: of \: girls

b + g = 120 \\ b =  \frac{3}{5} g

Now we can subtract the secons equation from the first.

g = 120 -  \frac{3}{5} g

I'm also goong to multiply the equatipn by 5 to remove the fraction.

5g =  - 3g + 600

Now simplify

8g = 600 \\ g = 75

Now we found out there are 75 girls. Now we insert this into our second equation to find how many boys there are.

b + 75 = 120 \\ b = 45

Now we know there are 45 boys.

Answer:

4) x^10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If two numbers have the same base (i.e. x^3 and x^4) and you are multiplying them you just add the exponents. Therefore x^3*x^4 would be x^(3+4) which equals x^7.

2) When dividing similar bases you have to subtract the exponents. If we have x^18÷x^8 that is equivalent to x^(18-8) which gives us x^10.

3) If we have (x^3)^3 we will need to multiply the exponents. Therefore (x^3)^3 is equivalent to x^(3*3) which gives us x^9.

4) (x^2*x^4)^4÷x^8

First do what's in the parentheses,

(x^2*x^4) = x^6

Next do the exponents,

(x^6)^3 = x^18

Lastly the division,

x^18÷x^8 = x^10

x^10 is our answer.
