To convert from radical form to exponential in fractional form, we can follow:


\sqrt[m]{b^n}=b^{(n)/(m)}

Firstly, notice that 9 is the same as 3 squared:


\sqrt[4x+2]{9}=\sqrt[4x+2]{3^2}

Now, we can apply the change:


\sqrt[4x+2]{3^2}=3^{(2)/(4x+2)}

Also, notice that we can factor out the 2 on the denominator to cancel with the two on the numerator:


3^{(2)/(4x+2)}=3^{(2)/(2(2x+1))}=3^{(1)/(2x+1)}

So, the expression in the simples form and fractional exponent is:


3^{(1)/(2x+1)}
