Simplify each expression. All variables represent positive real numbers. $$ \frac{1}{100^{-5 / 2}} $$
Simplify each expression. Write the answers without negative exponents. All variables represent positive real numbers. See Example 8. $$ 9^{3 / 7} \cdot 9^{2 / 7} $$
Bankruptcy. After filing for bankruptcy, a company was able to pay its creditors only 15 cents on the dollar. If the company owed a lumberyard 9,712 dollars, how much could the lumberyard expect to be paid?
Use a calculator to evaluate each expression. Round to the nearest hundredth. See Using Your Calculator: Rational Exponents. $$ (-1,000)^{3 / 5} $$
Relativity. One concept of relativity theory is that an object moving past an observer at a speed near the speed of light appears to have a larger mass because of its motion. If the mass of the object is \(m_{0}\) when the object is at rest relative to the observer, its mass \(m\) will be given by the formula \(m=m_{0}\left(1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}\right)^{-1 / 2}\) when it is moving with speed \(v\) (in miles per second) past the observer. The variable \(c\) is the speed of light, \(186,000\) mi/sec. If a proton with a rest mass of 1 unit is accelerated by a nuclear accelerator to a speed of \(160,000 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{sec},\) what mass will the technicians observe it to have? Round to the nearest hundredth.
