![x^2\left(\sqrt[4]{x^2}\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E2%5Cleft%28%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D%5Cright%29)
=====================================================
Explanation:
The fourth root of x is the same as x^(1/4)
I.e,
![\sqrt[4]{x} = x^{1/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B1%2F4%7D)
The same applies to x^10 as well
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = \left(x^{10}\right)^{1/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28x%5E%7B10%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B1%2F4%7D)
Multiply the exponents 10 and 1/4 to get 10/4
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = \left(x^{10}\right)^{1/4} = x^{10*1/4} = x^{10/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%28x%5E%7B10%7D%5Cright%29%5E%7B1%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2A1%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D)
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = x^{10/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D)
-----------------------
If we have an expression in the form x^(m/n), with m > n, then we can simplify it into an equivalent form as shown below
![x^{m/n} = x^a\sqrt[n]{x^b}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20x%5Ea%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Eb%7D)
The 'a' and 'b' are found through dividing m/n
m/n = a remainder b
'a' is the quotient, b is the remainder
-----------------------
The general formula can easily be confusing, so let's replace m and n with the proper numbers. In this case, m = 10 and n = 4
m/n = 10/4 = 2 remainder 2
We have a = 2 and b = 2
So
![x^{m/n} = x^a\sqrt[n]{x^b}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%3D%20x%5Ea%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Eb%7D)
turns into
![x^{10/4} = x^2\sqrt[4]{x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B10%2F4%7D%20%3D%20x%5E2%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D)
which means
![\sqrt[4]{x^{10}} = {x^2} \sqrt[4]{x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E%7B10%7D%7D%20%3D%20%7Bx%5E2%7D%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7Bx%5E2%7D)
<span>This is an isosceles triangle. If each side is 1, we can find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
1^2 + 1^2 = c^2
1 + 1 = c^2
2 = c^2
root 2 = c
Thus, the answer is root 2.
Hope this helps :)</span>
The answer should be jet streams. :)
Answer is a= 51/7 or 7 2/7
Step by step
-2/3 (a + 3) = 5/3a - 19
Distribute to resolve parentheses
-2/3a -2 = 5/3a - 19
Now to move variables to one side
Add 2/3a to both sides
-2/3a + 2/3a -2 = 5/3a + 2/3a -19
Combine like terms
-2 = 7/3a -19
Add 19 to both sides to isolate variable
-2 +19 = 7/3a -19 + 19
17 = 7/3a
Divide both sides by 7/3 to solve for a
(Remember when you divide a fraction, flip it and multiply.)
17 * 3/7 = a
51/7 = a
