OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it should be as follows

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt[3]{x}*\sqrt[4]{5x} = x ^{1/3}*(5x)^{1/4} = x ^{1/3}*5^{1/4}*x ^{1/4}=5^{1/4}*x ^{7/12}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u hv been asked to use rational exponents....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well to write it as a single radical expression

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radical form and rational forms are separate/different from each other. what i hv given is the rational exponent form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also since the rational exponents are not same, we cannot combine them like u hv done

OpenStudy (anonymous):
