Question

Which of the following equations represents the greatest value of x? Equation 1 x2 = 17 Equation 2 x2 = 26 Equation 3 x3 = 64 Equation 4 x3 = 27
a. Equation 1
b. Equation 2
c. Equation 3
d. Equation 4

Answer 1

C. equation 3 because x= 30 one third

Answer 2

Answer:

The greatest value of x is 5.1 from Equation 2 .

Option (b) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As the equation given in the question.

Equation 1

x² = 17

$x = \sqrt{17}$

x = 4.12 (Approx)

Equation 2

x² = 26

$x = \sqrt{26}$

x = 5.1 (Approx)

Equation 3

x³ = 64

$x = \sqrt[3]{64}$

x = 4

Equation 4

x³ = 27

$x = \sqrt[3]{27}$

x = 3

Therefore the greatest value of x is 5.1 from Equation 2 .

Option (b) is correct .
