The first step to solving x 8=10 is

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( x^8 = 10 \), the first step is to isolate \( x \). You can do this by taking the eighth root of both sides of the equation.

This can be mathematically expressed as:

\[ x = 10^{1/8} \]

So, the first step is to understand that you will take the eighth root (or raise to the power of \( \frac{1}{8} \)) of both sides.
