You can put this solution on YOUR website! simplify"
this please:
^4 sqrt x^-28
Assume the problem is the 4th root of x^-28, written here like this:
remember you can always get rid of negative exponent using it's reciprocal
In order to understand this we can write it
extract the 4th root of each and we have
which is
:
But we can sum all this up in one sentence, the 4th root of the 28th power = 7
