Put this into rational exponent form

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ohh that's easy, is "blank"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that 1x^1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait no it is 1/ (x to the power of one half)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1382137133224:dw|

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \textit{keep in mind that}\qquad \cfrac{1}{a^n} = a^{-n}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is just x to the power of 1/2

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \textit{keep in mind that}\qquad \Large \cfrac{1}{a^n} = a^{\color{red}{-n}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would the exponent be -1/2 ?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap

OpenStudy (anonymous):
