Use the strategy for solving word problems, modeling the verbal conditions of the problem with a linear inequality. An elevator at a construction site has a maximum capacity of 3000 pounds. If the elevator operator weighs 245 pounds and each cement bag weighs 95 pounds, how many bags of cement can be safely lifted on the elevator in one trip?
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. The equation \((2 x-3)^{2}=25\) is equivalent to \(2 x-3=5\).
In Exercises \(133-136\), determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. $$7^{\frac{1}{2}} \cdot 7^{\frac{1}{2}}=49$$
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.
