Solve the equation (y-10) ^2=0

y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

(y-10) ^2=0

Take the square root of each side

sqrt ((y-10) ^2) = sqrt (0)

y-10 = 0

Add 10 to each side

y-10+10=0+10

y = 10

You would end up with y=10 because you'll solve & see that the only way an exponent can be 0 is when the base is 0, so you end up getting rid of the exponent of 2 then you move 10 to the other side by adding since it's a negative & you end up with Y=10.
