simplify

- 9^{\frac{1}{2}}

Solution

- 3

Solution steps

- 9^{\frac{1}{2}}

Factor the number:

9 = 3^{2}

= - (3^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c}, a \geq 0

= - 3^{2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}}

2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 1

= - 3^{1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

3^{1} = 3

= - 3
