What is the radical exponent of:
\[^3\sqrt{x^3}\]
Really need the answer ASAP. Thanks so much! @smileyxl3 @sara17 @AravindG @funinabox
what do they mean by " radical exponent of" ?
you can write it like this: (x^3)^(1/3) in generality: \[\sqrt[n]{x}\] is writen as: (x)^(1/n) then you should multiply powers.. so: (x)^(3)(1/3)=x because (3)(1/3)=1 so => x^1=x
I'm sorry I meant simplify it
Thanks so much @sara17 Can you do another one please? Simplify: \[\sqrt[11]{x^5 * x^6}\]
\(\huge \sqrt[3]{x^3} \) if the exponent inside the radical, MATCHES the root of the radical, then it comes out, without an exponent, just by itself :)
what's \(\bf \large x^5 \times x^6 \quad ?\)
just multiply powers so you will have: (x^5)(x^6)=(x)^(5+6)=x^11 then you will have: \[\sqrt[11]{x^11}\] then write it in this form: (x^11)^(1/11)=x^((11)(1/11))=x^1=x
sorry i wrote multiply but i meant sum of powers: 5+6=11
