Question

1f a^ (b/2) = 25 for positive integers a and b , what is one possible value of b?

Answer 1

`a^{(b)/(2)}=25`

assuming we need the value of 'b' in terms a. We have to use logarithms to separate the two variables i mean b in terms of a.

`\log _a(25)\text{ = }(b)/(2)\rightarrow b\text{ =}2\log _a(25)`

Therefore this is the one possible answer for the b.
