OpenStudy (shaleiah):

\[x ^{13}\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \left( x^{\frac{1}{13}} \right)^{13}\implies x^{\frac{1}{13}\cdot 13}\implies x^{\frac{13}{13}}\implies x^{?}\)

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

1

@jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmm? what's \(\bf \cfrac{13}{13}=?\)

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

It's 1.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yeap, thus \(\bf \left( x^{\frac{1}{13}} \right)^{13}\implies x^{\frac{1}{13}\cdot 13}\implies x^{\frac{\cancel{13}}{\cancel{13}}}\implies x^{1}\implies x\)
