Question

Is 0.2 to the power of 4 equal to 0.4 to the power of 2

Answer 1

Answer: Yes!

Explanation:

It helps to expand the equation for a better visual and solve that way.

0.2^4 = 0.2 x 0.2 x 0.2 x 0.2

0.4 x 0.2 x 0.2

0.8 x 0.2

0.2^4 = 0.16

0.4^2 = 0.4 x 0.4

0.4^2 = 0.16

0.16 = 0.16, so 0.2^4 = 0.4^2
