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

and
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(x+7)^{-1/5}+(x+7)^{-6/5}\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
would it help if you imagine \[(x + 9)^{1/4} + (x+ 9)^{3/4}\]t be like \[(x+9) + (x+ 9)^3\]
since they have common denominators you can imagine it like this then just put the necessary changes later. do you know how to factor it out?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Honestly, from there, no, i'm not sure

not even \[(x+ 9) + (x+ 9)^3\]??
what about \[a + a^3\]
do you know gow to factor that out?
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
how*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Over the summer I have blanked on everything math.
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
you factor out \[a+ a^3\]as \[a(1 + a^2)\]
so now...do you know how to do \[(x+ 9) + (x+9)^3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[1+(x+9)^{3}\]

?
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
no.
\[(x+9)[ 1 + (x+9)^2]\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
there should be x + 9 outside
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
now just put/4 on all the exponents of x + 9 and you're done
