matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%283%2F4%29%29- matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F4%29%29
The smaller exponent is 1%2F4, so we factor out matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F4%29%29
matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F4%29%29(matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%283%2F4-1%2F4%29%29- 1)
matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F4%29%29(matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%282%2F4%29%29- 1)
matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F4%29%29(matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F2%29%29- 1)

You can leave it like that or change to roots:
 _  _ 
∜x(√x - 1)
