Question

PLS HELP ME!!!! use the properties of exponents to simplify the expression

Answer 1

According to Indices

(a⁴)²... The exponents will multiply each other to give (a⁶)

Using this here

The two Index would Multiply to give

½ x ⅔ = ⅓

= (27)⅓

Any Number to the Index of ½ simply means its Square root

so also...

Any Number to the index of ⅓ means its cube root...

Cube root of 27 = 3.

So

Option B is your answer.

Answer 2

Answer: 3

(27^1/2)2/3

So this means you multiply the exponents.

27^2/6

Simplify that 27^1/3

So cubed root of 27 is three.
