(1/5)n=2

Solution for (1/5)n=2 equation:

(1/5)n=2

We move all terms to the left:

(1/5)n-(2)=0


Domain of the equation: 5)n!=0

n!=0/1

n!=0

n∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

(+1/5)n-2=0

We multiply parentheses

n^2-2=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-2)
Δ = 8
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{4*2}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{2}=2\sqrt{2}$
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-2\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{0-2\sqrt{2}}{2}
=-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{2}
=-\sqrt{2}
$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+2\sqrt{2}}{2*1}=\frac{0+2\sqrt{2}}{2}
=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{2}
=\sqrt{2}
