\[x \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } / x \frac{ 1 }{ 12 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Converting to radical form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that x to the 1/3 power divided by x to the 1/12 power?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you retype it using parenthesis so it's a bit more clear?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes it is

alright basically this question is making sure you understand the concept that when dividing x to a power by the same x to a different power, you just subtract the exponents. So x^(1/3) / x^(1/12) = x^(1/3 - 1/12) = x^ (4/12 - 1/12) = x^(3/12)

I see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and I guess radical form would be the twelfth root of x cubed

Thank you very much ^_^
