simplify (4x^2)^{1/2}

Solution

simplify

(4 x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Solution

2 x

Solution steps

(4 x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

(a \cdot b)^{n} = a^{n} b^{n}

(4 x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} = 4^{\frac{1}{2}} (x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

= 4^{\frac{1}{2}} (x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

4^{\frac{1}{2}} = 2

= 2 (x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c},

assuming

a \geq 0

(x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} = x^{2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}}

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

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

= 2 x^{1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

x^{1} = x

= 2 x
