Question

Change this radical to an algebraic expression with fractional exponents. √y^2 The exponent on y is:

Answer 1

The power rule (or law of indices) related to root is given
$x^{ \frac{1}{2} }= \sqrt[2]{x}$

We have $\sqrt{ y^{2} }$
Rewrite according to the rule we have $y^{ \frac{2}{2} } = y^{1}$

The exponent on y is '1'

Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is:$\sqrt[n]{x^m} =x^\frac{m}{n}$

Notice that if a = b, the exponent is 1; so, any base raised to the same power as the index will equal the base.
