General Idea:

There are few exponent rules that need to be used to simplify the rational exponent to get to the answer.

<u>Exponent rules:</u>

Rule\; 1: a \cdot a \cdot a \cdot a =a^4\\ \\ Rule\; 2: (a^m)^n=a^{m \times n}

Applying the concept:

Rewriting 81 as a number with an exponent using prime factorization.

81=3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 3^4\\ \\ Applying \; Rule \; 1, \; we\; get\; \\\\81^{\frac{3}{4}}=(3^4)^{\frac{3}{4}}  \\ \\  Applying \; Rule \; 2,\; we\; get\\ \\ 3^{4 \times\frac{3}{4} } = 3^{\frac{12}{4} }=3^3=3 \times 3 \times 3 = 27

Conclusion:

The above explanation explains why 81^{\frac{3}{4}} =27

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum value of the sin function is at \dfrac{\pi}{2}, when sin is equal to 1. Since you need to multiply pi/12 by 6 to get to pi/2, the maximum amount of people will be at the square after 6 hours. Hope this helps!
