Answer:

$y^{ (3)/(2)}$

Explanation:

From the question posted, you've already initiated the solution but you applied a wrong approach;

Given

$y^{(4)/(3)} . y^{(2)/(3) - (1)/(2)}$

Required

Simplify; using power property

Power property states that;

a^m.a^n = a^(m+n)

a^m/a^n = a^(m-n)

By comparison; we have to apply the first property;

This is shown below;

$y^{(4)/(3)+(2)/(3) - (1)/(2)}$

Add fraction of the same numerator

$y^{(4+2)/(3) - (1)/(2)}$

$y^{(6)/(3) - (1)/(2)}$

$y^{2 - (1)/(2)}$

Subtract fraction

$y^{ (4-1)/(2)}$

$y^{ (3)/(2)}$

The expression
$y^{(4)/(3)} . y^{(2)/(3) - (1)/(2)}$ is equivalent to
$y^{ (3)/(2)}$
