Simplify by expressing fractional exponents instead of radicals

Mathematics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a^{\frac{1}{2}}b^{\frac{1}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression in radical form is given as:

\sqrt{ab}

We need to express this in fractional exponent form.

We know that,

\sqrt a=a^{\frac{1}{2}}

Also, \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt a\times \sqrt b

Now, clubbing both the properties of square root function, we can rewrite the given expression as:

\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt a \times \sqrt b\\\\\sqrt{ab}=a^{\frac{1}{2}}\times b^{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\\therefore \sqrt{ab}=a^{\frac{1}{2}}b^{\frac{1}{2}}

So, the given expression in fractional exponents form is a^{\frac{1}{2}}b^{\frac{1}{2}}.

People pay to visit a state home: Age 16+: £18.60 Under 16: £12.80 155 people pay and 49 of these people are under 16. How much
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

£2598.80

Step-by-step explanation:

155 people pay

49 are under 16

The number of 16+ people is: 155 - 49 = 106

Total money collected:

106 * £18.60 + 49 * £12.80 = £1971.60 + £627.20 = £2598.80

Please help me factor this!! Thanks!

We need to find two numbers that multiply to 24 (last coefficient) and add to 10 (middle coefficient). Through trial and error, the two values are 6 and 4

6 + 4 = 10
6*4 = 24

So we can break up the 10ab into 6ab+4ab and then use factor by grouping

a^2 + 10ab + 24b^2
a^2 + 6ab + 4ab + 24b^2
(a^2+6ab) + (4ab+24b^2)
a(a+6b) + 4b(a+6b)
(a+4b)(a+6b)

Therefore, the original expression factors completely to (a+4b)(a+6b)
