Section 1: Basic Mathematical Statements



#### Problem 41: One million = \(10^7\)
- Analysis: One million is \(1,000,000\), which can be written as \(10^6\) (since there are 6 zeros).
- Correct Statement: One million = \(10^6\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 42: One hour = \(60^2\) seconds
- Analysis: One hour has 60 minutes, and each minute has 60 seconds. Therefore, one hour = \(60 \times 60 = 3600\) seconds.
- Correct Statement: One hour = \(3600\) seconds.
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 43: \(1^0 \times 0^1 = 1\)
- Analysis:
- \(1^0 = 1\) (any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1).
- \(0^1 = 0\) (any number raised to the power of 1 is itself).
- Therefore, \(1^0 \times 0^1 = 1 \times 0 = 0\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 44: \((-3)^4 = -12\)
- Analysis:
- \((-3)^4 = (-3) \times (-3) \times (-3) \times (-3)\).
- Since the exponent is even, the result will be positive: \((-3)^4 = 81\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 45: \(3^4 > 3^3\)
- Analysis:
- \(3^4 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 81\).
- \(3^3 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 27\).
- Clearly, \(81 > 27\).
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 46: \(\frac{-3}{5} = \frac{-3^{100}}{-5^{100}}\)
- Analysis:
- The left-hand side is \(\frac{-3}{5}\).
- The right-hand side is \(\frac{-3^{100}}{-5^{100}}\). Since both the numerator and denominator are raised to the same power and have negative signs, the negatives cancel out: \(\frac{-3^{100}}{-5^{100}} = \left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^{100}\).
- Clearly, \(\frac{-3}{5} \neq \left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^{100}\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 47: \((10 + 10)^{10} = 10^{10} + 10^{10}\)
- Analysis:
- Left-hand side: \((10 + 10)^{10} = 20^{10}\).
- Right-hand side: \(10^{10} + 10^{10} = 2 \times 10^{10}\).
- Clearly, \(20^{10} \neq 2 \times 10^{10}\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 48: \(x^0 \times x^0 = x^0 \div x^0\) is true for all non-zero values of \(x\)
- Analysis:
- For any non-zero \(x\), \(x^0 = 1\).
- Left-hand side: \(x^0 \times x^0 = 1 \times 1 = 1\).
- Right-hand side: \(x^0 \div x^0 = 1 \div 1 = 1\).
- Both sides are equal.
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 49: In the standard form, a large number can be expressed as a decimal number between 0 and 1, multiplied by a power of 10
- Analysis:
- In standard form (scientific notation), a number is expressed as \(a \times 10^n\), where \(1 \leq a < 10\) and \(n\) is an integer.
- The statement incorrectly states that \(a\) is between 0 and 1, which is incorrect.
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 50: \(4^2\) is greater than \(2^4\)
- Analysis:
- \(4^2 = 4 \times 4 = 16\).
- \(2^4 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 16\).
- Clearly, \(16 = 16\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 51: \(x^m + x^m = x^{2m}\), where \(x\) is a non-zero rational number and \(m\) is a positive integer
- Analysis:
- Left-hand side: \(x^m + x^m = 2x^m\).
- Right-hand side: \(x^{2m}\).
- These are not equal in general. For example, if \(x = 2\) and \(m = 1\), then \(2x^m = 2 \times 2 = 4\) and \(x^{2m} = 2^2 = 4\), but this equality does not hold for all \(x\) and \(m\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 52: \(x^m \times y^m = (x \times y)^{2m}\), where \(x\) and \(y\) are non-zero rational numbers and \(m\) is a positive integer
- Analysis:
- Left-hand side: \(x^m \times y^m = (x \times y)^m\) (by the laws of exponents).
- Right-hand side: \((x \times y)^{2m}\).
- These are not equal. For example, if \(x = 2\), \(y = 3\), and \(m = 1\), then \(x^m \times y^m = 2^1 \times 3^1 = 6\) and \((x \times y)^{2m} = (2 \times 3)^2 = 36\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 53: \(x^m \div y^m = (x \div y)^m\), where \(x\) and \(y\) are non-zero rational numbers and \(m\) is a positive integer
- Analysis:
- By the laws of exponents, \(x^m \div y^m = \left(\frac{x}{y}\right)^m = (x \div y)^m\).
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 54: \(x^m \times x^n = x^{m+n}\), where \(x\) is a non-zero rational number and \(m, n\) are positive integers
- Analysis:
- By the laws of exponents, \(x^m \times x^n = x^{m+n}\).
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 55: \(4^9\) is greater than \(16^3\)
- Analysis:
- \(4^9 = (2^2)^9 = 2^{18}\).
- \(16^3 = (2^4)^3 = 2^{12}\).
- Clearly, \(2^{18} > 2^{12}\).
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 56: \(\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3 \div \left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^3 = 1\)
- Analysis:
- \(\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3 = \frac{2^3}{5^3} = \frac{8}{125}\).
- \(\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^3 = \frac{5^3}{2^3} = \frac{125}{8}\).
- \(\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3 \div \left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^3 = \frac{8}{125} \div \frac{125}{8} = \frac{8}{125} \times \frac{8}{125} = \frac{64}{15625}\).
- Clearly, \(\frac{64}{15625} \neq 1\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 57: \(\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^5 \times \left(\frac{5}{7}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{4+5}{3+7}\right)^5\)
- Analysis:
- Left-hand side: \(\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^5 \times \left(\frac{5}{7}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{4 \times 5}{3 \times 7}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{20}{21}\right)^5\).
- Right-hand side: \(\left(\frac{4+5}{3+7}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{9}{10}\right)^5\).
- Clearly, \(\left(\frac{20}{21}\right)^5 \neq \left(\frac{9}{10}\right)^5\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 58: \(\left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^9 \div \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^4 = \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^4\)
- Analysis:
- By the laws of exponents, \(\left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^9 \div \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^4 = \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^{9-4} = \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^5\).
- Clearly, \(\left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^5 \neq \left(\frac{5}{8}\right)^4\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 59: \(\left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^2 \times \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^{10}\)
- Analysis:
- By the laws of exponents, \(\left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^2 \times \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^{2+5} = \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^7\).
- Clearly, \(\left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^7 \neq \left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^{10}\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 60: \(5^0 \times 25^0 \times 125^0 = (5^0)^6\)
- Analysis:
- \(5^0 = 1\), \(25^0 = 1\), and \(125^0 = 1\).
- Left-hand side: \(5^0 \times 25^0 \times 125^0 = 1 \times 1 \times 1 = 1\).
- Right-hand side: \((5^0)^6 = 1^6 = 1\).
- Both sides are equal.
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 61: \(876543 = 8 \times 10^5 + 7 \times 10^4 + 6 \times 10^3 + 5 \times 10^2 + 4 \times 10^1 + 3 \times 10^0\)
- Analysis:
- Expanding the right-hand side:
\[
8 \times 10^5 + 7 \times 10^4 + 6 \times 10^3 + 5 \times 10^2 + 4 \times 10^1 + 3 \times 10^0 = 800000 + 70000 + 6000 + 500 + 40 + 3 = 876543.
\]
- Both sides are equal.
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 62: \(600060 = 6 \times 10^5 + 6 \times 10^2\)
- Analysis:
- Expanding the right-hand side:
\[
6 \times 10^5 + 6 \times 10^2 = 600000 + 600 = 600600.
\]
- Clearly, \(600060 \neq 600600\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 63: \(4 \times 10^5 + 3 \times 10^4 + 2 \times 10^3 + 1 \times 10^0 = 432010\)
- Analysis:
- Expanding the left-hand side:
\[
4 \times 10^5 + 3 \times 10^4 + 2 \times 10^3 + 1 \times 10^0 = 400000 + 30000 + 2000 + 1 = 432001.
\]
- Clearly, \(432001 \neq 432010\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.

#### Problem 64: \(8 \times 10^6 + 2 \times 10^4 + 5 \times 10^2 + 9 \times 10^0 = 8020509\)
- Analysis:
- Expanding the left-hand side:
\[
8 \times 10^6 + 2 \times 10^4 + 5 \times 10^2 + 9 \times 10^0 = 8000000 + 20000 + 500 + 9 = 8020509.
\]
- Both sides are equal.
- Conclusion: This statement is true.

#### Problem 65: \(4^0 + 5^0 + 6^0 = (4 + 5 + 6)^0\)
- Analysis:
- Left-hand side: \(4^0 + 5^0 + 6^0 = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3\).
- Right-hand side: \((4 + 5 + 6)^0 = 15^0 = 1\).
- Clearly, \(3 \neq 1\).
- Conclusion: This statement is false.
