SNRDB= 10*log10(SNR) --> log base 10SNR = 10.^(SNRDB/10)

SNRDB= 10*log10(SNR) --> log base 10

SNR = 10.^(SNRDB/10) ---(1)

SNR = exp(SNRDB*ln(10)/10) ---(2)

How is equation 2 comes as I checked both equation 1 & 2 are equivalent numerically. I am not able to derive equation 2.

10=exp(ln(10))=e^(ln(10)). Put that into one of the 10's in the second equation and use properties of exponents.
 


Thankyou I got it now.Cheers!
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
