Question

What is the simplified form of the following expression?

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

2^4 = 16 so simplify the first term to 2*2*
`\sqrt[4]{x}`=4*
`\sqrt[4]{x}`

Cannot simplify second term

3^4=81 so simplify third term to 3*3*
`\sqrt[4]{x}`=9*
`\sqrt[4]{x}`

2^4 = 16 so simplify the last term to 4*2*
`\sqrt[4]{2y}`=8*
`\sqrt[4]{2y}`

4+9=13

-2-8=-10

so choose C
