Help please please help me please

Answer 1

`\sqrt[2]{8}`

Explanation:

Remember the basic format of a fraction raised to a fractional exponent:

`a^(b)/(c)=\sqrt[b]{a^c}`

Some terms to keep in mind are the following:

(a) is the base

(c) is the exponent

(b) is the index

Apply this information to the given problem:

`2^(3)/(2)`

In this case, (2) is the base, and the index; (3) is the exponent. Apply the general format of the fraction exponent to change the expression from an exponent to a radical.

`2^(3)/(2)=\sqrt[2]{2^3}`

Simplify the term under the radical:

`\sqrt[2]{2^3}=\sqrt[2]{8}`
