5 sqrt of 93

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you mean the fifth root of 93

OpenStudy (llort):

2.4756918656443665097464962340518985001370237906844844328382...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.47569 should sufffice

OpenStudy (llort):

but that is not fun...

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

48.218

OpenStudy (llort):

or is it 5*sqrt(93)?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

same thing. :P

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

lol.

OpenStudy (llort):

in that case... 48.218253804964774978800155237163315919534518465316262036500... I WIN

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was my first question too she replied saying no..our first assumptions (llort's and mine were correct)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

llort :what re you on

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

haha.

OpenStudy (llort):

do you want some?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't take it the wrong way i ment mathematica, maple,octave,matlab,scilab etc :) (i love phrase puns )

OpenStudy (llort):

none of those... I do it all with my mind... =P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can someone explain how this works?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow some mind..

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

@becca: use Calc.

OpenStudy (llort):

+ is to - and * is to / is what sqrt(x) is to ^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry..we've taken ober reb's question. reb:yes use the calculator:otherwise use logs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*over

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was meaning how would you work the problem? Thanks. Just trying to understand this so I will be ready for the test.

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

\[\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{1/n}\] so \[\sqrt[5]{93} = 93^{1/5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

say 93^(1/5) = x take log on both sides... 1/5 * log(93) = logx you get some number on the left...then take that number's antilog...to regenerate x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Evern, log/antilog. Not sure what that is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what grade are you in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Learning Support Algebra. Been out of school for 15 years

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

all you need to know how to do is use a calculator to find value of \[93^{1/5}\] push 93 then the "^" key and then (1/5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o.k. log is the opposite operation of exponentiation.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithms
