Which of the following square root of the following number below? Check all that apply. 361

strangely worded question....

Step-by-step explanation:

=========================================================

Explanation:

Notice how (19)^2 = 19*19 = 361

This shows that 19 is a square root of 361. We can say

Similarly, (-19)^2 = (-19)*(-19) = 361. The two negatives cancel each other out. So that's why there are two solutions to which are x = 19 and x = -19.

So far that accounts for answer choices B and D.

-------------------------------------------

The other two answers are and (choices C and F) because anything to the 1/2 power represents a square root.

anything to the 1/3 power is a cube root

anything to the 1/4 power is a fourth root

and so on.

-------------------------------------------

Side note: For choice C, the exponent is done first before we apply the negative. So technically we could say for choice C to mean the same exact thing. If your teacher said then this would not be an answer because this results in a non-real number.

answer: x=60
