Simplify the fourth root of 162x^2 / y^8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Doing the fourth root is the same as taking it to the (1/4) power, so if you do that, you can distribute it into the parenthesis. For both the numerator and denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, it is just 3.5676x / y^4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Be careful of the exponent for the "x" value though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*x^.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup! :D Precisely

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you need it in decimal form or in root form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk it just says to simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It should probably be in decimal form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok because alternatively you could find all the prime numbers that multiply with each other to get 162, but it depends on what your teacher wants :]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help me with another one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

square root of x^2 - 2x +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see if you can factor that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just square root of (x-1)(x-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perfect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can also be writtn as (x-1)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So..there you go! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

One more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah sorry I can't, I have to finish my own work now >.< But good luck!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you post other stuff, I may be able to help you out tomorrow but I have early clases tomorrow so bleh, good luck with yours!
