Question 729697: how do I get y by itself? %28x%5E%281%2F4%29%29+%2B+%28y%5E%281%2F4%29%29=+%286%5E%281%2F4%29%29
I subtracted x^(1/4) on both sides then took everything to the fourth root but not sure how to simplify y=+%28%286%5E%281%2F4%29%29-+%28x%5E%281%2F4%29%29%29%5E%281%2F4%29

get y by itself? %28x%5E%281%2F4%29%29+%2B+%28y%5E%281%2F4%29%29=+%286%5E%281%2F4%29%29

y%5E%281%2F4%29=6%5E%281%2F4%29-x%5E%281%2F4%29
%28y%5E%281%2F4%29%29%5E4=%286%5E%281%2F4%29-x%5E%281%2F4%29%29%5E4
y=%286%5E%281%2F4%29-x%5E%281%2F4%29%29%5E4
That is as far as can be unless you want the expression in multiplied form.
