Q. Select the equivalent expression.30k−7⋅k−51k−52k−25k25k52
Simplify Inside Radical: We are given the expression:30k−7⋅k−51First, we need to simplify the expression inside the radical.
Combine Exponents: Since the bases are the same k, we can add the exponents when multiplying: k−7×k−5=k−7+−5=k−12 So, the expression becomes: 30k−121
Move to Numerator: Now, we can rewrite the expression by moving k to the numerator and changing the sign of the exponent: 30k12
Rewrite Radical as Exponent: The radical 30k12 can be rewritten as an exponent of 301:k12301
Multiply Exponents: When raising a power to a power, we multiply the exponents: k^{\(12\)})^{\frac{\(1\)}{\(30\)}} = k^{\(12\) \times \frac{\(1\)}{\(30\)}} = k^{\frac{\(12\)}{\(30\)}}\
Simplify Fraction: We can simplify the fraction \(\frac{12}{30} by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6: k3012=k52
