Question

Helpppppppppppppp?!?!?!!!!??

Answer 1

• Yes, the expressions are equivalent

--------------------------

Simplify the first expression and compare it with the second one:

• 
  `(p^2n^(1/2))^8√(p^5n^4) =`
• 
  `p^(2\cdot8)n^((1/2)\cdot8)√(p\cdot p^4n^4) =`
• 
  `p^(16)n^4(p^2n^2√(p) )=`
• 
  `p^(16+2)n^(4+2)√(p) =`
• 
  `p^(18)n^6}√(p)`

We got the same expression as the second one, so the answer is yes.
