OpenStudy (anonymous):

They are pretty danged sweet, I'd say.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radical equations always end with "viva la revolucion" and they have fractions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kantalope, are you thinking of rational equations? A radical equation doesn't have to have a fraction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hahaha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks for the help i guess but i got the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the real answer is whooo: A radical equation is an equation of the form Xm/n = a, for m, n integers, which has solution \[x= \sqrt[m]{a^n} = \left( \sqrt[m]{a} \right)^n\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And just cause it was bothering me...I was sort of remembering: the term inside the root symbol \[\sqrt{?}\] is called the radicand good for scrabble
