Evaluate x^5=32

$x^{5} = 32$

Step 1

Take the 5th root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.

$x = \sqrt[5]{32}$

Step 2

Simplify $\sqrt[5]{32}$ .

Rewrite $32$ as $2^{5}$ .

$x = \sqrt[5]{2^{5}}$

Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming real numbers.

$x = 2$
