Question

Simplify Radical Functions and Rational Exponents

Answer 1

\[\sqrt[4]{16x^5y^9}\]

Answer 2

what is sqrt_4_(16)

Answer 3

2

Answer 4

good so now 2 is out of the sq

Answer 5

x^5 you could rewrite is x*x^4

Answer 6

do i pull an x and y^2 our or do they stay under the sqrt

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

y^9 = y^8 * y

Answer 9

so it would end up as \[2xy^2\sqrt{xy}\]

Answer 10

2xy^2 srqt(xy)

Answer 11

16=2^4
x^5=x^4*x
y^9=y^4*y^4*y
so 2* x* y*y in sqrt(x*y)

Answer 12

that is right

Answer 13

that is what I thought it just didn't seem right

Answer 14

it is right

Answer 15

ok thank you

Answer 16
