\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%5E3%2Fx%5E-1%29%5E%28-1%2F4%29\"...first write \"x%5E-1\" as \"1%2Fx\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%5E3%2F%281%2Fx%29%29%5E%28-1%2F4%29\" then do this part \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%5E4%29%5E%28-1%2F4%29\" now, when you have this ^(-1/4) means \"%281%2Ffourth_+root_of_a_number%29\"; so, you will have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"root%284%2Cx%5E4%29\" ...since you have \"x%5E4\" under fourth root, you just cancel root and exponent and result is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x\"
