A rectangle has a length of the fifth root of 16 inches and a width of 2 to the 1 over 5 power inches. Find the area of the rectangle.

. 2 to the 3 over 5 power inches squared 2 to the 4 over 5 power inches squared 2 inches squared 2 to the 2 over 5 power inches squared

@amistre64
5th root is ambiguous to me. do you mean:\[\sqrt[5]{16}\]
great now my latex coding is not working again ...

3.2
and yes 5,16
@amistre64
recall how to find the area of a rectangle, what is the process we do?
A=WL ?? @amistre64
correct, so we are given W and L so we simply have to multiply them right |dw:1427209943587:dw|
if we can determine like bases, then we can simply add the exponents ....
can 16 be rewritten as a base 2 value?
no
really? 16 = 4*4 = 2*2*2*2 ....
oh yes im sorry
so lets use that :) |dw:1427210102371:dw|
