how can i write the following equation in the below form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(1-x)^{\frac{1}{2}} (1+x)^{\frac{3}{2}}\] to (1 + x)√(1 − x^2). @Vincent-Lyon.Fr

OpenStudy (amistre64):

anything that is /2 is a sqrt to begin with. then it may just be a matter of reducing whats left; unless you want to reduce the exponents to begin with

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[a^{1/2}b^{3/2}\] \[a^{1/2}~b^{2/2+1/2}\] \[a^{1/2}~b^{2/2}~b^{1/2}\] \[b(a^{1/2}b^{1/2})\] etc...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(1-x)^{\frac{1}{2}}(\sqrt{1-x})^3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and ideally, your notation would be corrected as:\[(1-x)^{\frac{1}{2}}\sqrt{~(1-x)^3~}\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

lol, and with a + in it ... but its early

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(1+x)(\sqrt{1-x}\sqrt{1+x})\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yep, and how do conjugates multiply?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(m-n)(m+n) conjugates are binomials with opposite operation ... (m-n)(m+n) = m^2 - n^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah then it should be \[(1+x)(\sqrt{1-x^2})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is tht right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol just realised that i got the answer :)
