Question

Type the expressions as radicals. y5/2

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sqrt{y^5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The expresion $y^{\frac{1}{b}}$ as radical is $\sqrt[b]{y}$. Therefore, a expresion of the form $y^{\frac{b}{a}}$ can be rewritten as

$y^{\frac{a}{b}}=\smash[b]{ \underbrace{\sqrt[b]{y} \cdots \sqrt[b]{y}\,}_\text{a-times}}=\sqrt[b]{y^{a}}$

Consequently,

$y^{\frac{5}{2}}=\sqrt[2]{y^5}$

Answer 2

The Radicals of y5/2 is: (y^5) = y^(5/2)
