algebra 2?!?!?
Yes? Depends on the question
Shoot, we didn't get to those yet /: I really wish I could help :(
$$ \large \cfrac{x^{1/3}}{x^{1/2}} $$ Bring the denominator up and add exponents: $$ \large x^{1/3}\times x^{-1/2}=x^{1/3 - 1/2}=x^{\cfrac{2-3}{6}}=x^{-1/6} $$ Make sense so far?
yeah is that the answer?
That is the process for the 1st one. In words, you need to bring the exponents of the variable x to the numerator then simplify by adding exponents. For the second part...
$$ \Large{ \sqrt[32]{x\times x^2\times x^5}\\ =\left(x\times x^2\times x^5\right)^{1/32}\\ =\left(x^{8}\right)^{1/32}\\ =x^{8/32}\\ =x^{1/4} } $$ In words, convert the radical to a power and add the exponents of the variable x. Next, multiply the power of x with the outside exponent and simplify the resulting power of x. That's it! Good luck!!
thank you!!!
Correction to the 1st part: $$ \large x^{1/3}\times x^{-1/12}=x^{4/12 - 1/12}=x^{\cfrac{4-3}{12}}=x^{3/12}=x^{1/4} $$ Notice that Megan and Julie's final result are equal to \(x^{1/4}\). So they are both equivalent.
