Q. Which exponential expression is equivalent to z78 \sqrt[8]{z^{7}} ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) z7z8 \frac{z^{7}}{z^{8}} \newline(B) z87 z^{\frac{8}{7}} \newline(C) z78 z^{\frac{7}{8}} \newline(D) z8z7 \frac{z^{8}}{z^{7}}
  1. Understand the meaning: Understand the meaning of the 88th root of zz raised to the 77th power.\newlineThe 88th root of z7z^{7} can be written as (z7)18(z^{7})^{\frac{1}{8}}.
  2. Apply exponent rule: Apply the exponent rule for powers of powers.\newlineWhen you have a power raised to another power, you multiply the exponents. In this case, we have zz raised to the 7th7^{\text{th}} power, and then taking the 8th8^{\text{th}} root, which is the same as raising it to the power of 1/81/8.\newline(z7)1/8=z7×1/8(z^{7})^{1/8} = z^{7 \times 1/8}
  3. Perform multiplication of exponents: Perform the multiplication of the exponents.\newline7×18=787 \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8}\newlineSo, (z7)18=z78(z^{7})^{\frac{1}{8}} = z^{\frac{7}{8}}.
  4. Match result with choices: Match the result with the given choices.\newlineThe expression z78z^{\frac{7}{8}} matches choice (C).
