Oman said that it is impossible to raise a number to the power of two and get a value less than the original number do you agree with Oman justify your reasoning

Respuesta :

I agree with Oman because when you have a number to the second number (the power of two) you times that same number twice so you will get a higher.

Hint:  Let the number be 0.5.  Raise this 0.5 to the power of two.  Is the result equal to the original number, less than the original number, or greater than the original number?
