Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. In an inequality such as \(5 x+4<8 x-5,\) I can avoid division by a negative number depending on which side I collect the variable terms and on which side I collect the constant terms.
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. $$x^{3}-64=(x+4)\left(x^{2}+4 x-16\right)$$
Perform the indicated operations. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\left(4-\frac{3}{x+2}\right)\left(1+\frac{5}{x-1}\right)$$
a. A mathematics professor recently purchased a birthday cake for her son with the inscription $$ \text { Happy }\left(2^{\frac{5}{2}} \cdot 2^{\frac{3}{4}} \div 2^{\frac{1}{4}}\right) \text { th Birthday. } $$ How old is the son?b. The birthday boy, excited by the inscription on the cake, tried to wolf down the whole thing. Professor Mom, concerned about the possible metamorphosis of her son into a blimp, exclaimed, "Hold on! It is your birthday, so why not take \(\frac{8^{-\frac{4}{3}}+2^{-2}}{16^{-\frac{3}{4}}+2^{-1}}\) of the cake? I'll eat half of what's left over." How much of the cake did the professor eat?
Perform the indicated operations. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\left(\frac{1}{a^{3}-b^{3}} \cdot \frac{a c+a d-b c-b d}{1}\right)-\frac{c-d}{a^{2}+a b+b^{2}}$$
