Which statement is always true? a negative exponent cannot be part of an expression's numerator. a negative base raised to the power of 2 has a negative value. a negative base raised to the power of 2 has a positive value. any number to the first power is zero.

The accompanying table shows the numbers of male and female students in a particular country who received bachelor's degrees in business in a recent year. complete parts (a) and (b) below. business degrees nonbusiness degrees total male 189131 634650 823781 female 169539 885329 1054868 total 358670 1519979 1878649 (a) find the probability that a randomly selected student is male, given that the student received a business degree. the probability that a randomly selected student is male, given that the student received a business degree, is nothing. (round to three decimal places as needed.) (b) find the probability that a randomly selected student received a business degree, given that the student is female. the probability that a randomly selected student received a business degree, given that the student is female, is nothing. (round to three decimal places as needed.)

Apositive number a or the same number a increased by 50% and then decreased by 50% of the result?
