  1. Question Prompt: Question prompt: What is the equivalent expression for x4\sqrt{x^{4}} given x > 0?
  2. Properties: Understand the properties of square roots and exponents.\newlineThe square root of a number is the value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number. For any positive real number aa, a2=a\sqrt{a^2} = a. This is because (a)2=a2(\sqrt{a})^2 = a^2, and since we are given that x > 0, we can apply this property directly.
  3. Apply Property: Apply the property to the given expression.\newlineWe have x4\sqrt{x^{4}}. According to the property from Step 11, this simplifies to x42x^{\frac{4}{2}} because the square root is the same as raising to the power of 12\frac{1}{2}, and when we multiply the exponents, we get (4×12)=2(4 \times \frac{1}{2}) = 2.
  4. Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression.\newlineSimplifying x(4/2)x^{(4/2)} gives us x2x^2. Since xx is positive, we do not need to consider the absolute value, and we can directly state that x4=x2\sqrt{x^{4}} = x^2.
