1.3: Radicals and Rational Expressions - Mathematics LibreTexts
Using Rational Exponents. Radical expressions can also be written without using the radical symbol. We can use rational (fractional) exponents. The index must be a positive integer. If the index \(n\) is even, then a cannot be negative.

2024年2月19日 · Given an expression with a rational exponent, write the expression as a radical. Determine the power by looking at the numerator of the exponent. Determine the root by looking at the denominator of the exponent. Using the base as the radicand, raise the radicand to the power and use the root as the index.
Rationalizing something means getting rid of any radicals. To rationalize a numerator, you want to modify the expression so as to remove any radicals from the numerator. The expression a + b has the conjugate expression a − √ √ numerator. For example, 2 − 43 − x and 2 + 43 − b, which can be useful when rationalizing a denominator or.

2020年9月27日 · Dividing Radical Expressions. You can use the same ideas to help you figure out how to simplify and divide radical expressions. Recall that the Product Raised to a Power Rule states that \(\sqrt[x]{ab}=\sqrt[x]{a}\cdot \sqrt[x]{b}\). Well, what if you are dealing with a quotient instead of a product? There is a rule for that, too.
