Question 32920: how would you solve the problem:
m^16-25=0
and set it equal to zero... i don't know how to do it with m^16. but a normal one would look like:
16y^2-25=0
(4y-5)(4y+5)=0
4y-5=0 4y+5=0
4y=5 4y=-5
y= 5/4 y= -5/4
but i dont know how to do it with m^16...
i get as far as:
m^16-25=0
(m^8-5) (m^8+5)=0
m^8-5=0 m^8+5=0
m^8= 5 m^8= -5
please do it and show the work...thanks :)

i did it 2 different ways. which is correct.
let\ stand for square root for this problem.
first way

6\9\5 + 2\10\4\2
6\45 + 2\80
6*3\5 +2\10*2\2
=6\9\5 + 2\5\16
