Q. Given x>0, the expression 3x32 is equivalent tox103xx113x2x113xx103x2
Understand the expression: Understand the expression 3x32. The expression 3x32 means the cube root of x raised to the 32nd power.
Apply exponent property: Apply the property of exponents to simplify the cube root.The cube root of x raised to the 32nd power can be written as x(32/3).
Divide exponent by 3: Divide the exponent by 3 to separate the whole number part and the remainder.32 divided by 3 gives 10 with a remainder of 2, so x(32/3) can be written as x(10+2/3).
Separate into two parts: Separate the expression into two parts: the whole number exponent and the fractional exponent.This gives us x10×x32.
Recognize x32: Recognize that x32 is the cube root of x squared.We can rewrite x32 as 3x2.
Combine expressions: Combine the expressions to get the final equivalent expression.The final expression is x10⋅3x2, which is x103x2.
