can someone help me
(4a 3/2)(2a1\2)
(3x5/6)(8x2/3)
(27a6)-2/3
the fractions are powers
(4a 3/2)(2a1\2)

CSmith said:would it6 ,^3+1=6^4.
CSmith said:ok thanks
if i have (3x5 ^5/6) (8x^2/3)would it be 11x how would i work out the 5/6 and the 2/3 in this
CSmith said:ok i got -24x and the base is 6 and 3 right
CSmith said:24x7/9
CSmith said:Ok thank you sir. i appreciate it
Rational exponents expressed as fractions are a way of representing a power with a rational number as the exponent. For example, 31/2 is a rational exponent expressed as a fraction, which is equivalent to the square root of 3.
To simplify rational exponents expressed as fractions, you can use the rules of exponents. For example, if you have 82/3, you can rewrite it as (23)2/3, which simplifies to 22, or 4.
Yes, rational exponents expressed as fractions can be negative. For example, (-8)2/3 is a valid expression, which is equivalent to the cube root of -8 squared, or -4.
To convert rational exponents expressed as fractions to radical form, you can use the property that xm/n is equal to the nth root of x raised to the m power. For example, 43/5 is equivalent to the fifth root of 4 cubed, or ∛43.
Rational exponents expressed as fractions are useful in situations where the exponent is not a whole number. They allow us to represent fractional powers and perform operations on them using the rules of exponents. They also have applications in fields such as calculus and physics.
