QuestionWork out the value of xnx^{n} when x=5x=5 and n=3n=3

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The base x x is given as 5 5 .
2. The exponent n n is given as 3 3 .
3. We need to calculate xn x^n .

STEP 2

1. Substitute the given values into the expression.
2. Calculate the power.

STEP 3

Substitute x=5 x = 5 and n=3 n = 3 into the expression xn x^n .
xn=53 x^n = 5^3

STEP 4

Calculate 53 5^3 by multiplying 5 5 by itself 3 3 times.
53=5×5×5 5^3 = 5 \times 5 \times 5

STEP 5

Perform the multiplication step-by-step.
5×5=25 5 \times 5 = 25

STEP 6

Continue the multiplication.
25×5=125 25 \times 5 = 125
The value of xn x^n when x=5 x = 5 and n=3 n = 3 is:
125\boxed{125}
