1장, 문제 83

Simplify each expression. Write answers without negative exponents. Assume all variables represent positive real numbers. 82/3

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the expression is an exponentiation of a number: \(8^{2/3}\). This means you are raising 8 to the power of two-thirds.
Recall the rule for fractional exponents: \(a^{m/n} = \left(\sqrt[n]{a}\right)^m = \sqrt[n]{a^m}\). Here, \(m=2\) and \(n=3\).
Apply the cube root first: find \(\sqrt[3]{8}\), which means the number that when cubed gives 8.
After finding \(\sqrt[3]{8}\), raise that result to the power of 2, i.e., square it.
Write the final expression without any negative exponents, ensuring the answer is simplified completely.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Exponents and Powers

Exponents indicate how many times a base is multiplied by itself. For example, 8^2 means 8 multiplied by itself twice. Understanding how to manipulate exponents is essential for simplifying expressions involving powers.

Rational Exponents

Rational exponents like 8^(2/3) represent roots and powers combined. The denominator (3) indicates the root (cube root), and the numerator (2) indicates the power. So, 8^(2/3) means the cube root of 8 squared.

Simplifying Expressions Without Negative Exponents

Negative exponents represent reciprocals, but the problem requires answers without them. This means rewriting expressions so all exponents are positive, often by using properties like a^(-n) = 1/a^n.
