Q. Select the equivalent expression.\newlinet8t14 \sqrt[14]{t^{-8} \cdot t} \newlinet12 t^{\frac{1}{2}} \newlinet2 t^{2} \newlinet12 t^{-\frac{1}{2}} \newlinet2 t^{-2}
  1. Understand the problem: Understand the problem.\newlineWe need to simplify the expression t8t14\sqrt[14]{t^{-8} \cdot t} to find an equivalent expression.
  2. Apply properties of exponents: Apply the properties of exponents.\newlineWhen multiplying two powers with the same base, we add the exponents.\newlinet8×t=t8+1=t7t^{-8} \times t = t^{-8 + 1} = t^{-7}
  3. Apply root to the power: Apply the root to the power.\newlineThe 14th14^{\text{th}} root of t(7)t^{(-7)} can be written as t(714)t^{(-\frac{7}{14})}.\newlineSimplify the fraction 714-\frac{7}{14} to get the exponent.\newlinet(714)=t(12)t^{(-\frac{7}{14})} = t^{(-\frac{1}{2})}
  4. Match with given options: Match the result with the given options.\newlineThe simplified expression t(1/2)t^{(-1/2)} matches one of the given options.
