Find the value of dd in the equation 56×5=5d5^{6} \times \sqrt{5}=5^{d}. Give the answer as a whole number or simplified fraction.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given the equation 56×5=5d5^{6} \times \sqrt{5}=5^{d} . We need to find the value of dd
3. The base of the exponential and the square root is54. We know that 5\sqrt{5} can be written as 51/5^{1/}

STEP 2

First, we rewrite the square root of5 in exponential form.
5=51/2\sqrt{5} =5^{1/2}

STEP 3

Now, we substitute 51/25^{1/2} for 5\sqrt{5} in the original equation.
56×51/2=5d5^{6} \times5^{1/2} =5^{d}

STEP 4

Next, we use the rule of exponents that says when you multiply two exponents with the same base, you add the exponents.
6+1/2=d^{6+1/2} =^{d}

STEP 5

Calculate the sum of the exponents.
5.5=5d5^{.5} =5^{d}

STEP 6

Since the bases are the same, the exponents must be equal for the equation to hold true. Therefore, we can equate the exponents.
6.5=d6.5 = d

STEP 7

We can write the decimal6.5 as a fraction in its simplest form.
d=13/2d =13/2The value of dd is 13/213/2.
