<h3>Answer: E) x^5</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
We simply take half of the exponent 10 to get 5. This applies to square roots only.
So the rule is
A more general rule is
If n = 2, then we're dealing with square roots like with this problem. In this case, a = x and b = 10.
x = total amount split between Adam and Tom.
since we know the total amount split between both in a 18 : 17 ratio is "x", let's divide "x" by (18 + 17) and distribute accordingly to get the amount of each.
