Multiple Choice Test
Indicate the correct answer by = clicking=20 on the button next to the numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4. There is only one = correct=20 answer per question. After you have answered all = multiple=20 choice questions compare your choices with the correct answers.=20

Exponents

Click on the button next to the term you think is the = correct=20 answer.=20

1.)  Given that (1/x)2 = =3D 0.04,=20 find the value of x.=20
    1   1/5
