The given equation is 16X^2 = 100.

We can solve for X by dividing both sides by 16 and then taking the square root of both sides:

16X^2 = 100

X^2 = 100/16

X^2 = 6.25

Taking the square root of both sides:

X = ±2.5

So, there are 2 solutions to the equation: X = 2.5 and X = -2.5.

Therefore, the answer is (D) 2 solutions.

Answer:

d. 2 solutions

Explanation:

To find the number of solution present in the equation given, we will follow the steps below:

16X²= 100

Take the square root of both-side

√16X²= √100

4x = ± 10

Divide both-side of the equation by 4

4x/4 = ± 10/4

x = ±
(5)/(2)

x = -
(5)/(2) or

It has two solutions
