Answer:

b) ∛7

Explanation:

If p= 2q^3 - 1, what is the value of q when p is 13

Hence:

13 = 2q³ - 1

We add 1 to both sides

13 + 1 = 2q³ - 1 + 1

14 = 2q³

We divide both sides by 2

14/2 = 2q³/2

7 = q³

q³ = 7

We take the cube root of both sides

∛q³ = ∛7

q = ∛7

Option b is the correct option
