Pat shows that 16 ^1/2=√16 What is one possible way Pat could have shown this correctly?
A. 16^1/2=(4+4)^1/2=4^1/2x4^1/2=4^1/2+1/2=4^1=4=√16
B. 16^1/2=(4x4)^1/2=4^1/2x4^1/2=4^1/2x1/2=4^1=4=√16
C. 16^1/2=(8x8)^1/2=8^1/2x8^1/2=8^1/2+1/2=8^1=8=√16
D. 16^1/2=(4x4)^1/2=4^1/2x4^1/2=4^1/2+1/2=4^1=4=√16
E. 16^1/2=(8+8)^1/2=8^1/2x8^1/2=8^1/2+1/2=8^1=8=√16
