Let's go through each of the questions step by step.

### Question 1
**Using the properties of exponents, which expression is equivalent to \( x^{1/6} \cdot x^{1/6} \)?**

Using the law of exponents, \( a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n} \):
\[
x^{1/6} \cdot x^{1/6} = x^{(1/6 + 1/6)} = x^{2/6} = x^{1/3}
\]

The expression \( x^{1/3} \) is the same as the cube root of \( x \).

**Correct response:** cube root of \( x \)

---

### Question 2
**Using the properties of exponents, which expression is equivalent to \( \frac{x}{x^{3/4}} \)?**

Using the law of exponents, \( \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \):
\[
\frac{x}{x^{3/4}} = x^{1 - 3/4} = x^{1/4}
\]

The expression \( x^{1/4} \) is the same as the 4th root of \( x \).

**Correct response:** 4th root of \( x \)

---

### Question 3
**Solve the equation \( 2x^{3/2} = 16 \)**.

First, divide both sides by 2:
\[
x^{3/2} = 8
\]

Next, raise both sides to the power of \( \frac{2}{3} \):
\[
x = 8^{2/3}
\]

Finding \( 8^{2/3} \):
\[
8^{1/3} = 2 \quad \text{(since the cube root of 8 is 2)}
\]
\[
2^2 = 4
\]

**Correct response:** 4

---

### Question 4
**Solve the equation \( 5x^{4/3} = 80 \)**.

First, divide both sides by 5:
\[
x^{4/3} = 16
\]

Next, raise both sides to the power of \( \frac{3}{4} \):
\[
x = 16^{3/4}
\]

Finding \( 16^{3/4} \):
\[
16^{1/4} = 2 \quad \text{(since the 4th root of 16 is 2)}
\]
\[
2^3 = 8
\]

**Correct response:** 8

---

### Question 5
**Solve the equation \( x^{2/3} = 64 \)**.

Raise both sides to the power of \( \frac{3}{2} \):
\[
x = 64^{3/2}
\]

Finding \( 64^{3/2} \):
\[
64^{1/2} = 8 \quad \text{(since the square root of 64 is 8)}
\]
\[
8^3 = 512
\]

**Correct response:** 512
