Answer:

|-3| = 3 and -|-4| = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function changes the sign to positive, if it isn't already. The usual rules of arithmetic and logic apply to these statements.

|-3| = 3 (true) and -|-4| = -4 (true) ⇒ this statement is true

|-3| = 3 (true) and |-4| = -4 (false) ⇒ this statement is false

-|3| = 3 (false) and |4| = 4 (true) ⇒ this statement is false

|-3| = 3 (true) and -|4| = 4 (false) ⇒ this statement is false

Additional comment

A compound "and" statement is only true if all of the parts of it are true.

Find the geometric sum 4 + 12 + 36 + . . . + 236,196.

Zolol [24]

The answer choices are sufficiently far apart that you can work this backward. The sum will be ...
236,196*(1 + 1/3 + 1/9 + 1/27 + ...)
so a reasonable estimate can be given by an infinite series with a common ratio of 1/3. That sum is
236,196*(1/(1 - 1/3)) = 236,196*(3/2)

Without doing any detailed calculation, you know the best answer choice is ...
354,292

_____
There are log(236196/4)/log(3) + 1 = 11 terms* in the series, so the sum will be found to be 4(3^11 -1)/(3-1) = 2*(3^11-1) = 354,292.

Using the above approach (working backward from the last term), the sum will be 236,196*(1-(1/3)^11)/(1-(1/3)) = 236,196*1.49999153246 = 354,292

___
* If you just compute log(236196/4)/log(3) = 10 terms, then your sum comes out 118,096--a tempting choice. However, you must realize that the last term is larger than this, so this will not be the sum. (In fact, the sum is this value added to the last term.)

Kari, juan, tami and brad are the first 4 people in line. Kari is not first in line. Tami had at least two people ahead of her i

Liula [17]

So, Juan is 3rd, and Tami has at least 2 ppl in front of her, she can't be third because Juan is, so she's fourth. Kari is not 1st, leaving the only space to be 2nd from Kari.
