Question

How would I rewrite (a^3/4)^5 using radicals?

Answer 1

humm (a^15 / 4^5) ??

Answer 2

Hmmm.. I have no idea, but how did you do that? Is there a formula?

Answer 3

yess
(X^a)^b=X^(a*b)

Answer 4

(X/Y)^a= X^a/Y^a

Answer 5

Oh! Okee dokee. Makes sense than.

Answer 6

using both
(X^b/Y)^a= X^a*b)/Y^a

Answer 7

any way radicals = root

Answer 8

would I be following the same process rewriting this as a rational expononent?

Answer 9

so i thing it will goes like this(but not sure)
(a^3/4)^5
=(a^15 / 4^5)
=(a^15 / 4^5)^1..... but 1=2/2

=(a^15 / 4^5)^2/2
=(a^30/4^10)^1/2
sqrt (a^30/4^10)

Answer 10

yess i guss :)
but there is many formulas u cud use

Answer 11

Oh Okay! Great. Thanks

Answer 12

wlc :)

Answer 13

Does x^2/5 sound right?

Answer 14

humm s.t x= ?

Answer 15

I'm confused... Is that a formula?

Answer 16

u can convert to x^2/5
for sure , but u need to be carfull how to get X

Answer 17

Ah. okay gotcha. Yay!

Answer 18

lets try this
(a^3/4)^5 let it all be Y
so how can u convert Y to
X^2/5 ?
Y^1 but 1 = 2*5/5*2 right ?
so take 2/5

(Y^(2/5))^(5/2) right ??
so
let
(Y^(2/5))=X
X^(5/2)
got it ??

Answer 19

Ah yes. Thank you so much for the explanation!!

Answer 20

You really should teach math! You're good at explaining and showing diagrams!

Answer 21

r u getting it ?

Answer 22

Yes. Much more than before

Answer 23

ohk i hope im not confusing u :o
gud luck :)

Answer 24

I was getting a little lost, but I really appreciate you trying to explain it! I got most it though, so thanks :)
