Evaluate the following put in simplest form no decimals

1. (9/16)^3/2
2. (0.6^-2)^-1/2

Answer 1

Regarding (9/16)^3/2 :

This can be re-written, in the Equation Editor, as \[(\frac{ 9 }{ 16 })^{3/2}\]

Answer 2

Note that the exponent 1/2 denotes square root, and that 3/2 can be re-written as (1/2)^3.

Then \[(\frac{ 9 }{ 16 })^{3/2}=[(\frac{ 9 }{ 16 })^{1/2}]^{3}\]
