Q. Rewrite the expression in the form k⋅yn.Write the exponent as an integer, fraction, or an exact decimal (not a mixed number).24y8y2=□
Simplify Coefficients and Root: We are given the expression (8y2)/(24y). The first step is to simplify the expression by dividing the coefficients and rewriting the root as an exponent.Divide 8 by 2.8/2=4Rewrite the fourth root of y as y1/4.Expression becomes: 4y2⋅y−1/4
Combine Like Terms: Now we need to combine the y terms by adding their exponents, since they have the same base and are being multiplied.Use the rule: ya⋅yb=ya+bAdd the exponents 2 and −41.2+(−41)=2−41=48−41=47Expression becomes: 4y47
