Answer:
When we have something like:
![\sqrt[n]{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%7D)
It is called the n-th root of x.
Where x is called the radicand, and n is called the index.
Then the term:
![\sqrt[4]{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B16%7D)
is called the fourth root of 16.
And in this case, we can see that the index is 4, and the radicand is 16.
At the end, we have the question: what is the 4th root of 16?
this is:
![\sqrt[4]{16} = \sqrt[4]{4*4} = \sqrt[4]{2*2*2*2} = 2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B16%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B4%2A4%7D%20%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B2%2A2%2A2%2A2%7D%20%3D%202)
The 4th root of 16 is equal to 2.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Let's put this into a system of equations and have a represent the apples and o represent the oranges.
o=2a+2
0.5o-0.5a=4
Since we can already so what o equals (2a+2) we will substitute it into the second equation and solve for a.
0.5(2a+2)-0.5a=4
1a+1-0.5a=4
1.5a+1=4
1.5a=3
a=2
Now that we know the value of a will put a into the first equation to find o.
o=2(2)+2
o=4+2
o=6
There were 6 oranges and 2 apples.
I hope this helps!
1.20 - .90 = .30
.30 / 5 = .06 (Same as 30 / 5)
The price of a pound of oranges went up by 6 cents per year.
