The expression \( 5 - \sqrt{3} \) can be rewritten in terms of rational exponents. The square root can be expressed using rational exponents as follows:

\[ \sqrt{3} = 3^{1/2} \]

Thus, the expression \( 5 - \sqrt{3} \) is equivalent to:

\[ 5 - 3^{1/2} \]

However, if you’re asking specifically about the "rational exponent" related to the square root part, the rational exponent for \( \sqrt{3} \) is \( \frac{1}{2} \).

Therefore, the rational exponent in fraction form is:

\[ \frac{1}{2} \]

5^?

The expression \(5 - \sqrt{3}\) does not directly correspond to \(5^?\) as it is not expressed in terms of a power of 5. However, if you need to express the square root of 3 in terms of a power, you can recognize that:

\[ \sqrt{3} = 3^{1/2} \]

And thus:

\[ 5 - \sqrt{3} = 5 - 3^{1/2} \]

If you're looking for a way to express the entire expression \(5 - \sqrt{3}\) in terms of a power of 5 specifically, there isn't a simple rational exponent for \(5^{?}\) that equals \(5 - \sqrt{3}\) since it represents a linear combination of a constant and a square root.

However, if you were looking for the exponent for \(5\) in terms of the original question about the rational exponent, please clarify what you mean by \(5^?\). If you meant to find a specific transformation related to \(5\), please provide more context.

5^? ^=?

To express \( 5 - \sqrt{3} \) in terms of rational exponents, let's focus on the term \( \sqrt{3} \).

The expression \( \sqrt{3} \) can be written using a rational exponent:

\[ \sqrt{3} = 3^{1/2} \]

To represent \(5 - \sqrt{3}\) in a way that highlights the exponent used, we can clarify that \(5\) can be expressed as \(5^1\). Hence, when you refer to \(5^?\) in relation to \(5 - \sqrt{3}\), this specific expression does not lead directly to a single exponent that combines both parts because \(5 - \sqrt{3}\) is not represented as a single exponent of 5.

If we isolate the term \( \sqrt{3} \):

The equivalent expression you might be looking for simplifies solely the square root:

\[ 5^{1} - 3^{1/2} \]

If you need the "rational exponent" for \(5^?\), the exponent of \(5\) in the form \(5^{?}\) is simply \(? = 1\).

For the square root term \(\sqrt{3}\):

\[ 3^{1/2} \]

Here, if you are looking for a rational exponent representation only for \(\sqrt{3}\), it is \(\frac{1}{2}\).

But given your question, if we are looking for the representation of just \(5\), then:

\[ \text{For } 5: \quad ? = 1 \]

Please clarify if you're looking for something different, as the original request might suggest a need for further elaboration.

2^? ^=?

To simplify the expression \( \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}} \) and express it in terms of \( 2^? \), we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Simplify the Coefficients

The coefficient \( \frac{8}{2} = 4 \).

Step 2: Express 4 in Terms of Powers of 2

We can write \( 4 \) as \( 2^2 \).

Step 3: Handle the Square Roots

Now we address the square roots:

\[ \sqrt{3} \text{ remains as } \sqrt{3} \] \[ \sqrt{2} \text{ remains as } \sqrt{2} \]

Step 4: Combine the Square Roots

So our expression now looks like:

\[ \frac{2^2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}} \]

Step 5: Rewrite the Square Roots in Terms of Exponents

We can express \(\sqrt{2}\) as \(2^{1/2}\):

Step 6: Simplify the Expression

\[ = 2^2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2^{1/2}} \] \[ = 2^2 \cdot \sqrt{3} \cdot 2^{-1/2} \]

Using the property of exponents where \(a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}\):

\[ = 2^{2 - \frac{1}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{3} \] \[ = 2^{\frac{4}{2} - \frac{1}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 2^{\frac{3}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{3} \]

Final Expression

Thus, the expression \( \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}} \) simplifies to:

\[ 2^{\frac{3}{2}} \cdot \sqrt{3} \]

Answer Format

If you need just the parts as per your request \( 2^? \):

\[ ? = \frac{3}{2} \]

So,

\[ 2^? \quad ? = \frac{3}{2} \]

If you're looking for the exponent related to the \( \sqrt{3} \) as well:

\(\sqrt{3}\) itself can be written as \(3^{1/2}\) but does not directly fit into the form of \( 2^? \).

In summary, the answer to your question about the exponent of 2 in this context is:

\[ ? = \frac{3}{2} \]

7^? ^=?

To simplify the expression \(49 \sqrt{7}^{-3}\) and express it in terms of powers of 7, we will use the properties of exponents, including the Quotient Property and Negative Exponent Property.

Step 1: Rewrite \(49\) as a Power of \(7\)

We recognize that \(49\) can be rewritten as \(7^2\):

\[ 49 = 7^2 \]

Step 2: Rewrite the Square Root

Next, we rewrite \(\sqrt{7}\) using rational exponents:

\[ \sqrt{7} = 7^{1/2} \]

Step 3: Substitute into the Original Expression

Now we rewrite the entire expression:

\[ 49 \sqrt{7}^{-3} = (7^2)(7^{1/2})^{-3} \]

Step 4: Apply the Negative Exponent Property

When raising a power to a negative exponent, we can rewrite it as the reciprocal of that power:

\[ (7^{1/2})^{-3} = 7^{-\frac{3}{2}} \]

Step 5: Combine the Exponents Using the Product Property

Now we can combine everything:

\[ 49 \sqrt{7}^{-3} = 7^2 \cdot 7^{-\frac{3}{2}} = 7^{2 - \frac{3}{2}} \]

Step 6: Simplify the Exponent

Now, we simplify the exponent:

\[ 2 - \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4}{2} - \frac{3}{2} = \frac{1}{2} \]

Thus, we have:

\[ 49 \sqrt{7}^{-3} = 7^{\frac{1}{2}} \]

Conclusion

The rational exponent for the new expression is:

\[ ? = \frac{1}{2} \]

So the final answer is:

\[ 7^{?} \quad ? = \frac{1}{2} \]

Consider the equation 4^3⋅(6^4−−√3)2=4^6
. Is this equation true or false? Enter 1 for true or 2 for false.(1 point)

To determine whether the equation \( 4^3 \cdot (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 = 4^6 \) is true or false, we'll simplify the left-hand side.

Step 1: Simplify the Left-Hand Side

Starting with the left-hand side:

  1. Calculate \( 4^3 \): \[ 4^3 = 64 \]

  2. Expand \( (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 \) using the binomial expansion \( (a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2 \): \[ (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 = (6^4)^2 - 2(6^4)(\sqrt{3}) + (\sqrt{3})^2 \]

    • \( (6^4)^2 = 6^8 \)
    • \( 2(6^4)(\sqrt{3}) = 2 \cdot 6^4 \cdot \sqrt{3} \)
    • \( (\sqrt{3})^2 = 3 \)

Putting this together: \[ (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 = 6^8 - 2 \cdot 6^4 \cdot \sqrt{3} + 3 \]

  1. Combine the terms: Now we have: \[ 4^3 \cdot (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 = 64 \cdot \left(6^8 - 2 \cdot 6^4 \cdot \sqrt{3} + 3\right) \]

Step 2: Compare to the Right-Hand Side

The right-hand side is: \[ 4^6 = 4096 \]

Step 3: Analyze the Left-Hand Side

Calculating \(64 \cdot (6^8 - 2 \cdot 6^4 \cdot \sqrt{3} + 3)\):

  • Since \(6^8\) and \(6^4\) are significantly larger than 4096, the left-hand side becomes much larger than 4096.

Given that \(6^4\) is \(1296\), \(6^8\) is a much larger number, and thus we can see that:

\[ 4^3 \cdot (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 \gg 4^6 \]

Conclusion

Since the left-hand side is much larger than the right-hand side, the equation \( 4^3 \cdot (6^4 - \sqrt{3})^2 = 4^6 \) is false.

Thus, the answer is:

\[ \text{2 (false)} \]
