D. 10^20
E. 10^100
Substituting n= 10¹� into n^n = 10^d, we get:
(10¹� )^(10¹�)= 10^d

When an exponent is raised to a power, we MULTIPLY the exponents.
Multiplying the exponents in blue, we get:
10^(10*10¹�) = 10^d
10^(10¹¹) = 10^d

Since each side has the same base, the exponent in blue must be equal to the exponent in red:
10¹¹ = d.

The correct answer is C.

A slightly different approach....

Given: n = 10^10

Also given: n^n = 10^d
Replace n in the base with 10^10 to get: (10^10)^n = 10^d
Apply Power of a Power rule on left side to get: 10^10n = 10^d
So, we can conclude that 10n = d
Now replace the remaining n with 10^10 to get: 10(10^10) = d
This is the same as: (10^1)(10^10) = d
Apply Product rule to get: 10^11 = d

Answer: C

Cheers,
Brent

OA C

Since n = 10^10, then n^n = (10^10)^(10^10) = 10^(10 x 10^10) = 10^(10^11). So d = 10^11.

Answer: C
