Which of the following equations represents the greatest value of x? equation 1 x2 = 17 equation 2 x2 = 26 equation 3 x3 = 64 equation 4 x3 = 27
a. equation 1
b. equation 2
c. equation 3
d. equation 4

The greatest value of x is 5.1 from Equation 2 .

Option (b) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As the equation given in the question.

Equation 1

x² = 17

x = 4.12 (Approx)

Equation 2

x² = 26

x = 5.1 (Approx)

Equation 3

x³ = 64

x = 4

Equation 4

x³ = 27

x = 3

Therefore the greatest value of x is 5.1 from Equation 2 .

Option (b) is correct .
