Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference
3,621 - 1,836 = 1,785
They payed $1,785 dollars in the second installment.
I’m going to go with Exponential
I'm assuming you meant to write a^4 = 625.
If that is the case, then note how 625 = 25^2, and how a^4 is the same as (a^2)^2
So we go from this
a^4 = 625
to this
(a^2)^2 = 25^2
Apply the square root to both sides and you'll end up with: a^2 = 25
From here, apply the square root again to end up with the final answer: a = 5 or a = -5
As a check:
a^4 = (-5)^4 = (-5)*(-5)*(-5)*(-5) = 25*25 = 625
a^4 = (5)^4 = (5)*(5)*(5)*(5) = 25*25 = 625
Both values of 'a' work out
Check whether it is possible to have a triangle with the given side lengths for example 7,9,13 then add any two sides and see if it is greater than the other side. Example the sum of 7 and 9 is 16 and 16 is greater than 13
