FAN AND MEDAL! simplify. the slash is in the because its a fraction
\[\sqrt[3]{7}\sqrt{7}/ \sqrt[6]{7^6}\]

\(\bf \large {\sqrt[{\color{red} m}]{a^{\color{blue} n}}=a^{\frac{{\color{blue} n}}{{\color{red} m}}} \\\quad \\\\ \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{7}\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt[6]{7^6}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{7\cdot 7}}{\sqrt[6]{7^6}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{7^{\color{blue}{ 2}}}}{\sqrt[6]{7^{\color{blue}{ 6}}}} \implies \cfrac{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}}{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}}} \\ \quad \\ \cfrac{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}}{1}\cdot \cfrac{1}{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}}}\implies 7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}\cdot 7^{-\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}}\implies ? }\)
7^5/3?
hmm how did you get \(\bf 7^{5/3}\) ?
its the only one of my choices that has a fraction in it...
well... you're supposed to "solve" it, no pick choices
idk how to multiply fractions though
well... I assume this material has already being covered.... . you may want to brush up on your exponent rules -> http://www.math-play.com/image-exponents-rules.jpg
its 8:00pm and im really trying to hurry because I have ALOT due by midnight. can you just explain it briefly for me please?
@wolf1728 can you help?
my options are: 7^-1, 1, 7, and 7^5/3...so his thing is wrong eather wat because hes doing 7x7
@zepdrix
you seem to be trying to get to "a lot" at certain deadline but you seem to be missing the idea behind the exercises at all :(
can we do it for you? yes it is going to "help" you? nope it'll simply be a disservice to you we can "help" you understand it, yes but you need to cover the material relevant to the section
I get the idea of it, to help me understand. but what I need is for you to help me with it. your thing is still gonna have 7x7 so it would be wrong.
\(\bf \large{\cfrac{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}}{1}\cdot \cfrac{1}{7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}}}\implies 7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}\cdot 7^{-\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}} \\ \quad \\ \textit{exponent rule of }a^n\cdot a^m\implies a^{n+m}\qquad thus \\ \quad \\ 7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}}\cdot 7^{-\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}}\implies 7^{\frac{{\color{blue}{ 2}}}{3}-\frac{{\color{blue}{ 6}}}{6}} }\)
same base, with whatever exponents, you'd add the exponents <--- exponents rule
ok so 7^-1/3?
yeap now keep in mind that \(\large \bf a^{-\frac{{\color{blue} n}}{{\color{red} m}}} = \cfrac{1}{a^{\frac{{\color{blue} n}}{{\color{red} m}}}} \implies \cfrac{1}{\sqrt[{\color{red} m}]{a^{\color{blue} n}}}\)
if your saying that 7^-1/3 is the answer then im sorry but your wrong.
\(\large \bf 7^{-\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{1}{7^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{\sqrt[3]{7}}\)
that's still wrong...
well... maybe the choices are off but based on what you gave, that's proper
you can always just verify with your calculator enter your original values, see what you get enter that value, see what you get
how would I enter that into a calculator? if I could do that I wouldn't be on here
Maybe I'm oversimplifying but isn't 7^.33333333 * 7^.5 = 7^.8333333333333 ? and the 6th root of 7^6 = 7 ? Then 7^.8333333333333 / 7 = 5.0611401848 / 7 ? = 0.7230200264 ?
:/ no....ill put the choices again a) 7^-1 b) 1 C) 7 D) 7^5/3
hmm well. 1/3 wouldn't quite be equal to 0.3333 per se =)
well... I see the choices, none of them match the result is proper "based on what you gave" the issue I think is, you're basing yourself on the choices provided they're helpful as a "guide", yes, they're not an authority
so all this and were nowhere
maybe your original material wasn't what we thought it was.. maybe a screenshot would help
the onlyl way I see 5/3 coming out is if you had 2/3 + 3/3 but that isn't the case the 6/6 is at the denominator, thus it'd be negative
At least wouldn't it help to get a definite answer so then we can go back to see the correct method to DERIVE the answer? Gee that is extreme backwards thinking isn't it? Can we agree that the denominator is definitely 7 ?
