  • If a and b are whole numbers such that a^b = 121, then find the value of (a – 1)^b + 1
Question 1:
If a and b are whole numbers such that a^b = 121, then find the value of (a – 1)^b + 1
A. 0
B. 10
C. 10^2
D. 10^3
Feedback 121 = 11^2 , hence value of a = 11 and b = 2 can be considered.
Therefore, the value of (a – 1)^b + 1 = (11 – 1)^2 + 1= 10^3
