This problem is a little different Simplify:
^5 sqrt symbol(x^7 y^4)
How would I solve this problem?
Is it supposed to be 5 square root of (x ^7 and y^4)?
It should be 5 then you expand everything in the sqroot to be (x x x x x x x y y y y)
Then take out for every two of each letter, make it one whole one..... so you get
5 x^3 y^2 squareroot (x)
I think that's what it means....Hope it helps!
On the paper the 5 is a small five and over the sqrt root symbol and inside the square root is x^7 and y^4
To simplify the expression ^5√(x^7y^4), we need to apply the exponent outside the radical to each factor inside the radical.
Let's break the problem down step by step:
Step 1: Break down the given expression: ^5√(x^7y^4)
Step 2: Simplify the expression inside the radical. In this case, we're dealing with two factors, x^7 and y^4.
Step 3: Apply the exponent 5 to each factor inside the radical. 5 × (x^7) = x^(7 × 5) = x^35 and 5 × (y^4) = y^(4 × 5) = y^20.
Step 4: Rewrite the simplified expression. ^5√(x^7y^4) becomes ^5√(x^35y^20).
Therefore, the simplified expression is ^5√(x^35y^20).
