Simplify. Remember to use absolute-value notation when necessary. If a root cannot be simplified, state this.
\[\sqrt[12]{-10}^{12}\]
this is what I got but i was wrong 12((-10) □(1/2))12 12(-10)6 (12*(-10) ┤ (-10)(-10)(-10)(-10)(-10)) Multiply to simplify (12*1000000) Multiply by 12 by 100000 then you will get (12000000) Answer is 12000000
Is your initial expression\[\sqrt[12]{(-10)^{12}}\]?
yes
Then your answer is |10| which can also be written +-10 because you have an even-powered root. So, a negative squared or "twelved" will be positive. And the 10 in the answer comes from the exponent being 12/12 = 1
How would you set that up, because that is what I was having a problem with
np\[\sqrt[12]{(-10)^{12}} = \sqrt{(-10)^{2}} = \sqrt{100} = \pm10\]
WOW i knew I was wrong but not that wrong
Thank you for your help! And if I set it up like this i will be correct
These things can be tricky!
Yes. Good luck to you and thx for the recognition!
thank you for your help
