Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. $$ 4^{-2}<4^{-3} $$
Factor and simplify each algebraic expression. $$(x+3)^{\frac{1}{2}}-(x+3)^{\frac{1}{2}}$$
Your computer store is having an incredible sale. The price on one model is reduced by 40%. Then the sale price is reduced by another 40%. If x is the computer’s original price, the sale price can be modeled by Your computer store is having an incredible sale. The price on one model is reduced by 40%. Then the sale price is reduced by another 40%. If x is the computer’s original price, the sale price can be modeled by $$ (x-0.4 x)-0.4(x-0.4 x)$$ A. Factor out \((x-0.4 x)\) from each term. Then simplify thre sulting expression. B. resulting expression. b. Use the simplified expression from part (a) to answer these questions. With a 40% reduction followed by a 40% reduction, is the computer selling at 20% of its original price? If not, at what percentage of the original price is it selling?
It takes you 50 minutes to get to campus. You spend t minutes walking to the bus stop and the rest of the time riding the bus. Your walking rate is 0.06 mile per minute and the bus travels at a rate of 0.5 mile per minute. The total distance walking and traveling by bus is given by the algebraic expression $$0.06 t+0.5(50-t)$$ a. Simplify the algebraic expression. b. Use each form of the algebraic expression to determine the total distance that you travel if you spend 20 minutes walking to the bus stop.
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. $$x-0.02(x+200)=0.98 x-4$$
