(4^(1/3))^2+8/(4^1/3))

Answer 1

first simplify each part of this:\[\frac{8}{4^{\frac{1}{3}}}=\frac{2*4}{4^{\frac{1}{3}}}=2*4^{\frac{2}{3}}\]do you understand this step?

Answer 2

yessir

Answer 3

ok, next we can simplify the other part of your equation to get:\[(4^{\frac{1}{3}})^2=4^\frac{2}{3}\]then simply put it all together to get:\[(4^{\frac{1}{3}})^2+\frac{8}{4^{\frac{1}{3}}}=4^\frac{2}{3}+2*4^\frac{2}{3}=3*4^\frac{2}{3}\]
