Answer:
n = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n. Then n^4 = 1296.
Taking the log of both sides, we get: 4 log n = log 1296, so that:
log 1296 3.1126
log n = ---------------- = ------------- = 0.7782
4 4
Since the base here is 10,
log n 0.7782
10 = 10
and so
n = 6
This tells us that 4^6 = 1296
