You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(8x)^(2/3) is equal to ((8x)^(1/3))^2
\n" ); document.write( "you get the cube root of (8x) and then you square it.
\n" ); document.write( "in radical form, this would be shown as:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28root%283%2Cx%29%29%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(8x)^(2/3) is also equal to ((8x)^2)^(1/3)
\n" ); document.write( "you square (8x) and then you take the cube root of it.
\n" ); document.write( "in radical form, this would be shown as:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"root%283%2Cx%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "you'll get the same answer either way.
\n" ); document.write( "assume x = 27
\n" ); document.write( "the first form gets the cube root of 27 which is equal to 3 and then squares that to get 9.
\n" ); document.write( "the second form squares 27 to get 729 and then takes the cube root of that to get 9.\r
