Answer:

1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that raising to the one-half power i.e. \frac{1}{2} is the same

as taking the square root.

  • so x^{\frac{1}{2}} is the same as the square root of x.

For example, taking the square root of 4 will determine:

4^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:4=2^2

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(a^b\right)^c=a^{bc},\:\quad \:a\ge 0

\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \frac{1}{2}}

so the expression becomes

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \:\frac{1}{2}}

    =2^1

    =2         ∵ \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^1=a

so, 1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.

How much interest will Hannah
baherus [9]

keeping in mind that a year has 12 months, thus 6 months is really 6/12 of a year.

~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$630\\ r=rate\to 6.5\%\to \frac{6.5}{100}\dotfill &0.065\\ t=years\to \frac{6}{12}\dotfill &\frac{1}{2} \end{cases} \\\\\\ I = (630)(0.065)(\frac{1}{2}) \implies I\approx 20.48
