Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step in solving the equation is to cube both sides:
(∛x)³ = (-4)³ . . . . . = (-4)(-4)(-4) = 16(-4) = -64
x = -64 . . . . . simplified

We're not sure what "checking" is supposed to involve here. Usually, one would check the answer by seeing if a true statement is made when the answer is put into the original equation.
∛(-64) = -4 . . . true
Many calculators will not compute √(-64) because they compute roots using logarithms. The log of a negative number is not defined.
So, the way one would check this is to cube both sides, which is how we got the answer in the first place. We expect the same result from doing the same operation again, so it isn't really a check.
9/10 * 5/2 = 45/20
The quotient will be greater than 1
Answer:
693 fish
Step-by-step explanation:
In 10 years, we can tell that the amount of fish increased by 1.833...(990 divided by 540) times. If we divide 1.833... by 10, we can find how much the pond increases by yearly. we get 0.1833... If we multiply that by 7 (because the gap between 1986 and 1979 is 7 years), we get 1.2833... So, if we multiply 540 by 1.28333..., we get 693 fish.
