Answer: x^4

Explanation:

1. Rewrite the expression in fraction form:

(3√x²)^6 = x^(2/3)^6

2 is the exponent, so when written in fraction form, it is the numerator. 3 is the index or root, so in fraction form it is the denominator.

2. Solve:

x^(2/3)^6 = x^(12/3) = x^4

Because the exponent 2/3 is raised to the power of 6, you can use the power rule, which basically just means that whenever an exponent is raised to an exponent, multiply them. So, 2/3 * 6 equals 12/3, and 12/3 equals 4, making your answer x^4.
