Question

Using the properties of exponents and radicals, design at least three different equivalent forms of x². You must show how each one can be simplified back to x² in two or more steps. Stretch your mind and get creative! Keep in mind that something too simple, like x • x would not be acceptable since it takes only one step to convert it to x².

Answer 1

\[\frac{ x^{-6} }{ x^{-8} }\]

Answer 2

it has to have two steps and that only has one

Answer 3
