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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well 6 to the second power is when you multiply 6 x 6 = 36
And ab= -320
Answer:
(B) square
Step-by-step explanation:
Square (regular quadrilateral): all four sides are of equal length (equilateral), and all four angles are right angles.
Answer:
Arithmetic
Step-by-step explanation:
A sequence is a set of numbers, called terms, arranged in some particular order. An arithmetic sequence is a sequence with the difference between two consecutive terms constant
Y = x² - 8x + 29
y = (x² -8x +4²) + 29 -4² . . . . add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient
y = (x -4)² + 13 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
The appropriate choice is
C. y = (x - 4)² + 13
