Final answer:
The choices that are real numbers are: A. (-131072)1/16, B. (-256)1/11, C. (-5776)1/7, and D. (-531441)1/12.
Step-by-step explanation:
The choices that are real numbers are:
- A. (-131072)1/16
- B. (-256)1/11
- C. (-5776)1/7
- D. (-531441)1/12
To determine whether a number is real, we need to check whether the exponent is rational and the base is non-negative. In each of the given choices, the exponent is rational and the base is not negative, so all of the options are real numbers.
