Expert answer:Simplify and compare equivalent expressions writte

Expert answer:Simplifying Radicals In this discussion, you will simplify and compare equivalent expressions written both in radical form and with rational (fractional) exponents. Read the following instructions in order and view the example (available for download in your online classroom) to complete this discussion. Please complete the following problems according to your assigned number. (Assigned number is 28 which specifies problems 42 & 56 to be completed)Problem # 42. (27^-2/3 / 27^-1/3 the font is kind of small)Problem # 56. Simplify each expression using the rules of exponents and examine the steps you are taking.Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing. Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing the thought behind your math work.Principal rootProduct ruleQuotient ruleReciprocalnth rootRefer to Inserting Math Symbols for guidance with formatting. Be aware with regards to the square root symbol, you will notice that it only shows the front part of a radical and not the top bar. Thus, it is impossible to tell how much of an expression is included in the radical itself unless you use parenthesis. For example, if we have √12 + 9 it is not enough for us to know if the 9 is under the radical with the 12 or not. Therefore, we must specify whether we mean it to say √(12) + 9 or √(12 + 9), as there is a big difference between the two. This distinction is important in your notation.Another solution is to type the letters “sqrt” in place of the radical and use parenthesis to indicate how much is included in the radical as described in the second method above. The example above would appear as either “sqrt(12) + 9” or “sqrt(12 + 9)” depending on what we needed it to say.Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.

INSTRUCTOR GUIDANCE EXAMPLE: Week Three Discussion
Simplifying Radicals
1. Simplify each expression using the rules of exponents and explain the steps you
are taking.
2. Next, write each expression in the equivalent radical form and demonstrate how it
can be simplified in that form, if possible.
3. Which form do you think works better for the simplification process and why?
#51. (2-4)1/2

The exponent working on an exponent calls for the Power Rule.
The exponents multiply each other.
-4*1/2 = -2 so the new exponent is -2.
(-4*1/2)
2-2

The negative exponent makes a reciprocal of base number and
exponent.
The final simplified answer is ¼. This is the principal root of the
square root of 2-4.

multiplying both the inner exponents. 81 = 34
4*1/4 = 1, 12*1/4 = 3, and 20*1/4 = 5
All inner exponents were multiples of 4 so no rational exponents are left.

The squaring eliminates the negative for the answer.
It turns out that the examples I chose to work out here didn’t use all of the vocabulary
words and required one which wasn’t on the list. Students should be sure to use words
appropriate to the examples they work on.
Inserting Math Symbols
Throughout these courses MAT 221 and MAT 222 students are required to submit written assignments
in Microsoft Word that require the use of Mathematical symbols. Please follow the directions below in
order to insert mathematical symbols into your documents.
Inserting Symbols:
1. Click with your mouse in the space you would like the mathematical symbol to appear.
2. Click with your mouse on the “Insert” tab on the upper navigation toolbar.
3. Click with your mouse on the “Symbol” button.
4. In the dropdown menu, click with your mouse on “More Symbols”.
5. In the “Symbol” window, click on the “Subset” dropdown menu and choose the desired category
that fits the mathematical equation.
6. Select the desired symbol and click with your mouse “Insert”.
7. The symbol should appear in your document.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate the contact your instructor.
