Problem 107
Write a numerical expression for each phrase and simplify. \(20 \%\) of the product of \(-5\) and 6
Problem 112
The top of Mt. Whitney, visible from Death Valley, has an altitude of \(14,494\) ft above sea level. The bottom of Death Valley is 282 ft below sea level. Using 0 as sea level, find the difference between these two elevations.
Problem 114
Write each sentence as an equation, using \(x\) as the variable. Then find the solution from the set of integers between \(-12\) and \(12,\) inclusive. The quotient of a number and 4 is \(-1\)
Problem 121
To find the average (mean) of numbers, we add the numbers and then divide the sum by the number of terms added. For example, to find the average of \(14,8,3,9,\) and \(1,\) we add them and then divide by 5. $$ \frac{14+8+3+9+1}{5}=\frac{35}{5}=7 \leftarrow \text { Average } $$ Find the average of each group of numbers. $$ -15,29,8,-6 $$
Problem 122
To find the average (mean) of numbers, we add the numbers and then divide the sum by the number of terms added. For example, to find the average of \(14,8,3,9,\) and \(1,\) we add them and then divide by 5. $$ \frac{14+8+3+9+1}{5}=\frac{35}{5}=7 \leftarrow \text { Average } $$ Find the average of each group of numbers. $$ -17,34,9,-2 $$
Problem 124
To find the average (mean) of numbers, we add the numbers and then divide the sum by the number of terms added. For example, to find the average of \(14,8,3,9,\) and \(1,\) we add them and then divide by 5. $$ \frac{14+8+3+9+1}{5}=\frac{35}{5}=7 \leftarrow \text { Average } $$ Find the average of each group of numbers. All even integers between \(-18\) and \(4,\) inclusive
Problem 127
The operation of division is used in divisibility tests. A divisibility test allows us to determine whether a given number is divisible (without remainder) by another number. An integer is divisible by 4 if its last two digits form a number divisible by \(4,\) and not otherwise. Show that (a) \(6,221,464\) is divisible by 4 and (b) \(2,876,335\) is not divisible by 4
