have you written each of them in the following form: \[x^\frac{b}{a}\]
you can use \[\sqrt[a]{x^b}=x^\frac{b}{a}\] if you do not see a number in place of a on the left hand side understand it to be two
example: \[\sqrt{x^b}=x^\frac{b}{2}\]
|dw:1441657423202:dw|
after writing each of them in that form , the next question for me to ask is do you know what an integer is?
for number one you have your fraction upside down*
inside number on top outside number on bottom
|dw:1441657571671:dw|
amazing
now reduce the fractions you will see some become integers (basically you are looking for non-fractions after they have been reduced)
for example 4/2=?
2
2 is an integer (it is not a fraction though you can write it as a fraction so technically it is still a fraction :p)
what about 3/6?
0.5
it's an fraction
1/2 or 0.5 is not an integer an integer will be in the following set: ...,-4,-3,-1,0,1,2,3,4,....100,... the dots mean it goes on forever and ever
maybe you can try the rest now
I can check your choices you make if you want me to
on no I forgot to write -2 in my set above :p
|dw:1441658067987:dw|
the non-fraction things there are the integers
looks great you did awesome
I'm going to leave eat now unless you have questions on this particular one
that's it, thanks!
have a good day
