but, not sure if its correct
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
what slope did you get...?
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
B looks to be correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I agree that seems to B correct.

@BigPoppa117 @campbell_st
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
ok... so the question is
\[2\sqrt[4]{80}\]
so you need to rewrite the radical as the product of factors
\[2\sqrt[4]{80}= 2 \sqrt[4]{16 \times 5}\]
which can be written as
\[2 \times \sqrt[4]{16} \times \sqrt[4]{5}\]
now you should be able to work from there
OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
ok, I need a little guidance still on the last step... please
OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
would I do 16 times 5? and then add the exponents
OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
or would I distribute the 16 to 4 times 4 to get 8 on the outside?

@campbell_st ? still need help...
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
well you need to know
\[16 = 2^4\]
so now you should be able to simplify the problem
OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
@zepdrix
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
so the problem becomes
\[2\sqrt[4]{80} = 2 \times \sqrt[4]{2^4} \times \sqrt[4]{5}\]
just simplify the 1st radical
