SOLUTION: Simplify. Remember to use absolute-value notation when necessary. If a root cannot be simplified, state this. 1976 sqrt sign then (2a + b)^1976 I am so confuse

Assume the problem is:
1976%2Asqrt%28%282a+%2B+b%29%5E1976%29
we can write this in this form
1976%2Asqrt%28%282a+%2B+b%29%5E988%2A%282a%2Bb%29%5E988%29
Find the square root
1976%2A%282a+%2B+b%29%5E988
