Question

Can someone solve this and explain it please

Answer 1

2/5

Explanation:

`\sqrt[5]{x}` is equal to
`x^(1/5)` (Any number to the power 1/5 means to find the fifth root). Now we can do
`x^(1/5)` ×
`x^(1/5)` (we would just add the powers). 1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5. The answer is
`x^(2/5)`, so a = 2/5.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

a = 2/5

Explanation:

`x^{(1)/(5)}*\sqrt[5]{x}=x^(a)\\\\\\x^{(1)/(5)*x^{(1)/(5)}}=x^(a)\\\\\\x^{(1)/(5)+(1)/(5)}=x^(a)\\\\\\x^{(2)/(5)}=x^(a)`

Base are same. So, compare the exponents

a = 2/5
