Ok, so on this one you need to change your mixed numbers to improper fractions.
R
9 5/8 = 8x9+5= 77/8
1 7/8 = 8x1+7 = 15/8

Now subtract since your denominators are equal.
77/8 - 15/8 = 62/8

Now change back to a mixed number, 8 × 7 = 56 with a remainder of 6.

7 6/8 , simplify 6/8 to 3/4.

Your final answer is 7 3/4. Hope this helps you!

Answer:

$x^{\frac{1}{2} } + 48$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is hard to explain, but basically you use exponent rules to switch it to an exponent

$(\sqrt[4]{x^{2} +4} )^{3}$

It's easiest if you calculate $4^{3}$ first

4³ = 4 x 4 x 4 = 48

Then convert the root to a fraction exponent

$\sqrt[4]{x^{2}} = x^{\frac{2}{4}} = x^{\frac{1}{2} }$

Combine them using addition, since addition was in the problem

$x^{\frac{1}{2} } + 48$

I hope this helps!
