how does 81Root3 turn into 3^9/2?

#

and the same with the square root, it will be 3^1/2

#

you will get all the same bases

swift carbon
#

then i multiply the exponents to get 9/2?

dusk reef
#

no

#

listen

past adder
#

You would multiply 4 by 1/2 firstly

#

Then ignore the bases

dusk reef
#

when you got all the same bases you can ignore them

#

so you will have

#

x/2 = 4*1/2

#

and you can operate easily

#

it's a rule in math dw

swift carbon
#

shit never thought of it

#

thank you

dusk reef
#

no worries

Interesting I got the correct answer using logarithms but the other method sounds more intuitive

swift carbon
#

so the answer would be 4 then right?

past adder
#

Wha ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

I just used logs and got 4 ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

Crap wait, where the hell did I get x-2 from ๐Ÿ’€

#

Still works out to 4 tho

$3^{x/2}=3^4 3^{1/2}$
