Roots and Radical Expressions ALGEBRA 2 LESSON 7-1 Quick Check Find all the real roots. Since 0.33 = 0.027, 0.3 is the cube root of 0.027. Since (–5)3 = –125, –5 is the cube root of –125. Since 54 = 625 and (–5)4 = 625, 5 and –5 are fourth roots of 625. There is no real number with a fourth power of –0.0016. 7-1

Roots and Radical Expressions ALGEBRA 2 LESSON 7-1 A cheese manufacturer wants to ship cheese balls that weigh from 10 to 11 ounces in cartons that will have 3 layers of 3 cheese balls by 4 cheese balls. The weight of a cheese ball is related to its diameter by the formula w = , where d is the diameter in inches and w is the weight in ounces. What size cartons should be used? Assume whole-inch dimensions. Find the diameter of the cheese balls. 7-1
Roots and Radical Expressions ALGEBRA 2 LESSON 7-1 (continued) The length of a row of 4 of the largest cheese balls is 4(3.80 in.) = 15.2 in. The length of a row of 3 of the largest cheese balls 3(3.80 in.) = 11.4 in. The manufacturer should order cartons that are 16 in. long by 12 in. wide by 12 in. high to accommodate three dozen of the largest cheese balls. Quick Check 7-1
