OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

what is the radical?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah put the numbers and stuff up here. Lol

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

\[\frac{ 1 }{\sqrt[3]{x^-6} }\]

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

-6 is an exponent of x ...just thought id say that bc it doesnt look like it originally

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

wouldntt i get x^ 3/-6

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

wait no it would be x^-6/3

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

but how do i show my work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The index (3) goes into the exponent twice.

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

so then it would be x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry negative twice lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you're gonna have x^-2

OpenStudy (morganchavez):

so then my finall answer would be x^-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. you're just done on the bottom
