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

Solution

simplify

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

Solution

1 - x

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

if

n

is even

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

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

assuming

a \geq 0

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

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

= (1 - x)^{1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

= 1 - x
