Re: Good exponent problem
substitute n=1cramya wrote:( a^2^(n-1) + b^2^(n-1) ) ( a^2^(n-1) - b^2^(n-1) )
A) a^2^n - b^2^n
B) a ^2n + b^2n
C) (a^n - b^n) ^ 2
D) (a^2 - b^2) ^ (n-1)
E) (a^2 + b^2) ^ (n-1)
OA : A
( a^2^(n-1) + b^2^(n-1) ) ( a^2^(n-1) - b^2^(n-1) ) = (a+b)(a-b) = a^2-b^2
only A satisfies.
