145*? I don't get it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ 100 }{ 100 }\] is a whole, so as a number it is 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the numerator is always the number and "percent" means /100

so 1.45?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
YES
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry my computer keeps refreshing the page but can you help me with number 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes it works the same way, percentage is always a ratio
\[\% = \frac{ }{ 100 }, \]\[x \% = \frac{ (x ) }{ 100 }.\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2 43/100?

YES !!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
43/100 = 0.43/1
OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know what a square root is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\sqrt{16} = 4\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so we're looking for a number that, when squared, will give the one under the root
OpenStudy (anonymous):
one that when multiplied with itself, will be the one under the root

so for number 4 it will be C?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well I think I confused you
4*4 is a square (of 4) and is 16 , but that's not a good estimation for 10
the post above was just an example for how a square root works,
could have also used
\[\sqrt{9} = 3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh so its D right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
For the problem 4) you're looking for a square (REQUIREMENT so it works with roots) that is close to 10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

D)
- is a square (number multiplied with itself)
- the result is 9, which is close to 10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you. can you help with number 5?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
There you need to be familiar with exponent rules
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What can this be written using no exponents?
\[6^3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
uh I'm not sure about that..

sorry my computer keeps failing so im on my phone
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it can be written like this:
\[6 \times 6 \times 6\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so would it be A?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[6^{-3} = \frac{ 1 }{ 6 \times 6 \times 6 }\]
If the exponent is negative, it means take reciprocal after applying the typical exponent operation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it's either B or C?

I want to say b but I'm not sure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the second part is 5^-4
step by step: what will this be?
\[5^4\]
