The winner of a 1000 mile race drove his car to victory at rate of 124.51222mph. what was his time(to the nearest thousand of an hr)?

distance = rate times time, so time = distance / rate.

Here,

time = (1000 miles) / (124.51222 mph) = 0.125 hour = (1/8 hour)

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)
