The 4th root of 32 is 2, because 2x2x2x2 = 32. The 4th root of y^4 is y. For x^5, you can rewrite it as x^4 * x, and the 4th root of x^4 is x.


The simplified expression is 2xy%2Aroot%284%2Cx%29

Please help simplify this expression. Assume all variables are positive.
∜(32x^5 y^4 )

root%284%2C+32x%5E5y%5E4%29

root%284%2C+2%5E4+%2A+2+%2A+x%5E4+%2A+x+%2A+y%5E4%29

2xy+%2A+root%284%2C+2x%29

You can do the check!!
