) Solve the equation
(85) for n.
8n
n =
?

perdón yo no hablo inglés

n = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

1 / 8^n  = 8^5^2

We know that 1/a^b = a^-b

We also know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)

8^-n = 8^(5*2)

8^-n = 8^(10)

Since the bases are the same, the exponents are the same

-n = 10

n = -10

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
