Rewrite ksqrtx^p as a rational expression. Explain
To rewrite k√x^p as a rational expression, we first need to understand that the square root (√) can be written as x^(1/2) and that any root can be expressed in fractional form as x^(1/n), where n is the index of the root.
In this case, we have k√x^p, where the index of the root is implied to be 2 (since it's a square root). Therefore, we can rewrite it as kx^(p/2).
This expression can be written as a rational expression as follows:
kx^(p/2) = kx^(p/2)/1
So, the rational expression for k√x^p is kx^(p/2)/1.
