The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to compare the values of A, B, and C given as follows: - \( A = \sqrt{2} \) - \( B = \sqrt[3]{3} \) - \( C = \sqrt[4]{4} \) ### Step 1: Express A, B, and C in exponent form We can express the square root, cube root, and fourth root in exponent form: - \( A = 2^{1/2} \) - \( B = 3^{1/3} \) - \( C = 4^{1/4} \) ### Step 2: Rewrite C in terms of base 2 Since \( 4 = 2^2 \), we can rewrite C: - \( C = (2^2)^{1/4} = 2^{2/4} = 2^{1/2} \) ### Step 3: Compare A and C Now we have: - \( A = 2^{1/2} \) - \( C = 2^{1/2} \) From this, we see that: - \( A = C \) ### Step 4: Compare B with A and C Next, we need to compare \( B = 3^{1/3} \) with \( A = 2^{1/2} \) and \( C = 2^{1/2} \). ### Step 5: Find a common exponent to compare A and B To compare \( 2^{1/2} \) and \( 3^{1/3} \), we can find a common exponent. The least common multiple of the denominators (2 and 3) is 6. - Rewrite \( A \) and \( B \) with a common exponent: - \( A = 2^{1/2} = 2^{3/6} \) - \( B = 3^{1/3} = 3^{2/6} \) ### Step 6: Compare the values Now we need to compare \( 2^{3/6} \) and \( 3^{2/6} \): - \( 2^3 = 8 \) - \( 3^2 = 9 \) Since \( 8 < 9 \), we have: - \( 2^{3/6} < 3^{2/6} \) - Thus, \( A < B \) ### Final Comparison Now we have: - \( A = C \) - \( A < B \) So, we conclude: - \( B > A = C \) ### Conclusion The correct option is: - **B is greater than A and C (B > A = C)**
