23. Asanji took a trip to Mexico. Upon leaving he decided to convert all of his Pesos back into dollars. How many dollars did he receive if he exchanged 42.7 Pesos at a rate of $5.30 = 11.1 Pesos?

5.30/(11.1) = x/42.7. Since x/42.7 times 42.7 = x, (5.30/11.1) x 42.7 ≈ 20.39 dollars, which is about 20 dollars.

Can negative numbers have cube roots? Explain.

Yes, because a negative number multiplied by itself 3 times, gives you a negative number. If you have an odd number as a exponent and a negative number as a base, then you have a negative number.

28) When an alligator is born it is about 8 inches long. Each year alligators grow about 12 inches. Determine the age of a 116 inch long alligator.

a = (116 - 8) / 12. a = 108 / 12 a = 9 The alligator will be 9 years old when it is 116 inches long.

26) Albert must take 1.25 milliliters of medicine every day. How many days will the medicine last if Albert was given a prescription of the medicine in a bottle containing 50 milliliters? d = amount of days the medicine will last. 1.25 is the amount of medicine per day. 50 is the quantity of medicine.

d = 50 / 1.25 Factors of 50: 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 Multiples of 1.25 : 1.25, 2.5, 3.75, 5, 6.25.... Five is a common number; 5 d = 40

25) Amelia wanted to buy a new computer and printer which had a total cost of $1099.95. She had saved $389.85 for her purchase. How much more does she need to save to buy the computer and printer she wants? m = (how much more she needs to save). 1099.95 = total cost. 389.85 = much she saved right now.

m = 1099.95 - 389.85. = $710.10
