Answer:

D)
(\sqrt[4]{2x -8} )^4 = (-\sqrt[4]{2x + 8} )^4

Explanation:

The given equation is
\sqrt[4]{2x - 8}  + \sqrt[4]{2x + 8 } = 0

Before, solve this equation, we have to get rid off the radical sign.

So we move the second term on the other side.


\sqrt[4]{2x-8} = -\sqrt[4]{2x + 8}

Since we have to radical of 4, we need to raise the power to 4 on both sides


(\sqrt[4]{2x - 8)} )^4 = (-\sqrt[4]{2x + 8} )^4\\

Thank you.
