**Question 1:** (10 points)
For each numerical value below, determine if the value is within the interval \((-∞, 0)\).
Answer "Yes" or "No."
\[
\begin{align*}
12^{-5} \quad & \underline{\qquad\qquad} \\
\frac{0}{500} \quad & \underline{\qquad\qquad} \\
|-0.5| \quad & \underline{\qquad\qquad} \\
-4^2 \quad & \underline{\qquad\qquad} \\
-9.2 \times 10^4 \quad & \underline{\qquad\qquad} \\
\end{align*}
\]

**Explanation:**
- **12⁻⁵**: Evaluate if this positive or negative.
- **0 / 500**: Result of the division and its placement in relation to zero.
- **|-0.5|**: Effect of the absolute value on a negative number.
- **-4²**: Mathematical operation and whether the result is positive or negative.
- **-9.2 × 10⁴**: Clearly a large negative number.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fbc1363df-6cfd-4bb5-8d16-40f0b2f29f61%2F045e7967-8198-4a97-abdc-9a29e37b2ca1%2Fwb1xuxr_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
