\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} k=constant\ of\\ \qquad variation \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}


\bf \stackrel{\textit{\underline{n} scarves is inversely proportional to the area \underline{a} of each scarf}}{n=\cfrac{k}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} a=3\\ n=16 \end{cases}\implies 16=\cfrac{k}{3}\implies 48=k~\hfill \boxed{n=\cfrac{48}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{when a = 4, what is \underline{n}?}\qquad n=\cfrac{48}{4}\implies n=12

What is the expression in radical form?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

\sqrt[5]{25x^{2}y^{4}z^{6} }

Step-by-step explanation:

going to the 2/5 power is the the fifth root of a square. For fraction exponents going into radical form use the denominator as you root of and use the numerator as the exponent of the rest making sure to multiply any other exponents by that number and when there is no exponent treat it as having an exponent of one for the multiplying.
