Which of the following is the radical expression of 4 times d to the three eighths power? (2 points) 4 times the eighth root of

stepan [7]

For this case we have the following expression:

$4 ^ {\frac {3} {8}}$

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have to:

$a ^ {\frac {m} {n}} = \sqrt [n] {a ^ m}$

Then, we can rewrite the expression as:

$\sqrt [8] {4 ^ 3}$

Answer:

$4 ^ {\frac {3} {8}} = \sqrt [8] {4 ^ 3}$
