Joe makes a poster from a photo. He cuts 2 inches from the top and bottom of the photo then enlarges the photo 3 times the original size. The expression 3(h - 4) models the poster height, where h is the original photo height. Which is the poster height when the original photo height h is 11 1/2 inches?

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
