Okay so I was absent and missed the day we took notes on this stuff, my teacher isnt the best and wont give me the notes, so if yall know ANYthing please comment it and answer it!

I can’t help you with this but I recommend speaking with the teacher or asking a friend for the notes. I’m sorry if I fully didnt help you. It’s just that I’m in a diff class than you.. best of luck :)

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)
