Question

is 2(rad2) the same thing as 2^(3/2)?

Answer 1

\[2\sqrt{2} \ne 2^{\frac{3}{2}}\]

Answer 2

actually it is true. think about it like this:

\[\sqrt{2}\sqrt{2}\sqrt{2}\]

Answer 3

then that would be \[\sqrt{2}^{3}\] which is equal to \[2^{3\over2}\]

Answer 4

oooh, alright. thanks! that makes this problem way simpler!

Answer 5
