matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Croot%2824%2C49%29%29matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2C%22%22=%22%22%29matrix%282%2C1%2C%22%22%2Cx%5E%281%2F12%29+%29
Raise both sides to the 24th power

The left side is just 49 and for the right side we multiply the
exponents 1%2F12 by 24 and get 2:

49%22%22=%22%22x%5E2

Taking positive square roots

 7 = x
