    3333 a. Each edge has 3 cubes, so there are 3 · 3, or
    9 cubes in one layer. There are 3 layers, so there are
    9 · 3, or 27 cubes. Written as one multiplication
    problem this is 3 · 3 · 3, or 33.
    b. Sample answer: A number taken to the third
    power is the same as the volume of a cube, or the
    amount of space inside a cube.

  8. 2,147,483,648 37. 63 , 15^2 , 3^5 , 2^8. 39. Sample
    answer: 4^5 = 1,024 41. 1,000; 1,000 cannot be
    expressed as a square: 11^2 = 121, 19^2 = 361,
    242 = 576. 43. Sample answer: Using exponents
    is a more effi cient way to describe and compare
    numbers. 45. F

  9. 11; Sample answer: Subtract fi rst since 5 - 2 is in
    parentheses. Then add 8. 3. 11; Sample answer:
    Multiply 2 by 6 fi rst since multiplication comes
    before addition or subtraction. Then subtract and
    add in order from left to right. 5. 400; Sample
    answer: Evaluate 10^2 fi rst since it is a power. Then
    multiply by 4. 7. 11; Sample answer: Subtract fi rst
    since 6 - 3 is in parentheses. Then multiply the
    difference by 2 and multiply 3 by 4 since
    multiplication comes before addition or
    subtraction. Finally, add 17 and 6 and subtract 12 in
    order from left to right.
    99 3(0.05) + 2(0.25) + 2(0.10) + 7(0.01)
    =0.15 + 0.50 + 0.20 + 0.07
    = 0.92
    He has $0.92.

  10. 3; Sample answer: Add fi rst since 3 + 4 is in
    parentheses. Then subtract.
    1313 1; Sample answer: Subtract fi rst since 11 - 2 is
    in parentheses. Then divide.
    15. 8; Sample answer: Divide fi rst since division
    comes before addition or subtraction. Then subtract
    1 and add 7 in order from left to right.
    17. 5; Sample answer: Multiply fi rst since
    multiplication comes before addition or
    subtraction. Then subtract the product from 118
    and add 5. 19. 30,000; Sample answer: Evaluate
    104 fi rst since it is a power. Then multiply by 3.
    21. 386; Sample answer: Evaluate 7^2 fi rst since it is a
    power. Then multiply by 8 since multiplication
    comes before subtraction. Finally, subtract.
    23. 75; Sample answer: Evaluate 9^2 since it is a
    power. Then divide 14 by 7 and multiply the
    quotient by 3 since multiplication and division
    occur from left to right. Finally, subtract.
    25. 22; Sample answer: Add fi rst since 6 + 5 is in
    parentheses. Then subtract 6 from 8 since 8 - 6 is
    in parentheses. Finally, multiply. 27. 23; Sample
    answer: Add fi rst since 4 + 7 is in parentheses.
    Then multiply the sum by 3. Next, multiply 5 by 4
    and divide the product by 2 since multiplication
    and division occur in order from left to right.
    Finally, subtract. 29. 3(0.25) + 5(0.50); $3.25
    31. 19; Sample answer: Evaluate 3^3 fi rst since it is a
    power. Then add 8. Next subtract 6 from 10 since
    10 - 6 is in parentheses. Then square the difference
    since the power is 2. Finally subtract 16 from 35.
    33. 64; Sample answer: Subtract fi rst since 4 - 3.2 is
    in parentheses. Multiply 7 by 9 next since
    multiplication occurs from left to right. Then
    subtract 0.8 from the product, 63, and add 1.8 since
    addition and subtraction occur from left to right.
    3535 The total cost is equal to $0.15, the cost of one
    text message over 250, times the number of text
    messages over 250 plus $5, the cost of the plan.
    $0.15(275 - 250) + $5
    = $0.15(25) + $5 Subtract.
    = $3.75 + $5 Multiply.
    = $8.75 Add.
    37. 2 × 8 + 2 4 ; Sample answer: The expression
    when evaluated is equal to 32. The other three
    expressions are equal to 0. 39. Sample answer:
    There are 24 cookies to be divided among 12
    people. If 4 people do not want cookies, how many
    cookies will each person receive?; 12 - 4 = 8 and
    24 ÷ 8 = 3; So, each person will get 3 cookies.
    41. H 43. Find the value of 3^2. Then multiply by 5
    and then add 7.; 52
