Simplify:
%28320%2Ax%5E8%2Ay%5E19%29%5E%281%2F2%29 Multiply each factor inside by the external exponent (That's the 1%2F2%29)
%28320%29%5E%281%2F2%29+%2A+%28x%5E8%29%5E%281%2F2%29%2A%28y%5E19%29%5E%281%2F2%29 Now multiply the exponents and substitute 320%5E%281%2F2%29+=+sqrt%28320%29 = 17.89.
highlight%2817.89%2Ax%5E4%2Ay%5E%289.5%29%29
