-7

Answer 1

@baru can you help with this one?

Answer 2

Is it 49 * -1/2 ?

Answer 3

yeah

Answer 4

Okay, so all you have to do is multiply is straight across.
\[\frac{ 49 }{ 1 }*\frac{ -1 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 5

49 * -1 = -49
and
1 * 2 = 2

So your final answer is -49/2. In decimal form it would be -24.5

Answer 6

wait. the equation is 49^-1/2

Answer 7

\[49^{-1/2}\] like this

Answer 8

Ohh, an exponent. Okay, sorry.

Answer 9

that's okay I should've specified

Answer 10

So we have to convert it to radical form it would be \[\frac{ 1 }{ \sqrt{49} }\]

And that simplifies to 1/7 or 0.142 :)

Answer 11

\[a ^{\frac{ x }{ n }}=\sqrt[n]{a ^{x}}\]The formula to convert to radical form is
