\[16^{\sqrt{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my bad

OpenStudy (ranga):

Is the problem 4^x = 16^sqrt(2) and solve for x?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

16 is a square root. The exponent is 2. 4^2=16 or 4*4=16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sprry rang yes it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

super slow net

OpenStudy (ranga):

\[\Large 4^{x} = 16^\sqrt{2}\]16 can be written as: \[\Large 4^{2}\]Therefore, \[\large 4^x = (4^{2})^{\sqrt{2}} = 4^{2\sqrt{2}}\]The base 4 is the same on both sides of the equation and therefore the exponents must be the same. So, \[\Large x = 2\sqrt{2}\]
