Answer 1

\[(x+9)^{1/4}+(x+9)^{3/4}\]

Answer 2

\[\text{Let }A = (x+9)^{1/4}\]Then you just have to factor:\[A+A^3\]

Answer 3

What happened to the fractions?

Answer 4

If \[A = Z^{1/4}\]Then \[A^3 = Z^{3/4}\]

Answer 5

I don't understand

Answer 6

Okay, do you agree that:\[x^{1/4}*x^{1/4}*x^{1/4}=x^{3/4}\]

Answer 7

YES

Answer 8

Oops, caps, sorry about that.

Answer 9
