Q:

I need help and explanations with these 5 questions.Question 1Is the expression x^3*x^3*x^3equivalent to x^(3*3*3)? Why or why not? Explain your reasoning.No because the law of exponentsQuestion 2Rewrite in simplest radical form1/x^((-3)/6)Show each step of your process.Question 3Rewrite in simplest rational exponent form √x • 4√x. Show each step of your process.Question 4Rewrite in simplest radical formx^(5/6)/x^(1/6)Show each step of your process.Question 5Which of the following expressions are equivalent? Justify your reasoning.a. 4√x3b. 1/x^(-1)c. 10√x5•x4•x2d. x^(1/3)*x^(1/3)*x^(1/3)

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:1) No. 2) [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] 3)4x 4) [tex]x^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex] or [tex]\sqrt{x^3}[/tex]5) B and D.Step-by-step explanation:Check the pictures below1) [tex]x^{3} *x^{3}*x^{3}=x^{3+3+3}=x^{9}[/tex]x^(3*3*3)=x^{27}[/tex]For the first, we must just  repeat the base e sum the exponentsFor the second one, we must multiply the exponents.According to the Exponents Law. [tex]x^{m}*x^{n} =x^{m+n}\\x^{m*n} =x^{mn}[/tex]2) Here we have three combined Exponent laws, namely:3) First on multiplying keep the 4 outside the square root, 4) The starting point of it is reminding that in a fraction, whenever we divide two fractions we have to operate the product of the first fraction times the inverse of the second one.Then we apply the Exponent Law of a divison between same base powers, repeating the base subtracting the exponents, and simplifying it:[tex]x^{\frac{4}{6}}=x^{\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]5) Check belowb and d, are equivalent between themselves since the same quantities of x are displayed.
