rewrite ^r √q^t using a rational expression

Question

show all steps

Answer 1

Step 1: Rewrite √q^t as (q^t)^(1/2)

Step 2: Take the square root of q^t inside the parentheses

(q^t)^(1/2) = q^(t/2)

So, ^r √q^t can be rewritten as:

r(q^(t/2))

Therefore, ^r √q^t can be expressed as a rational expression r(q^(t/2)).
