The quotient property of radicals requires the indices of the radicals to be the same. Does this mean that it is not possible to write es002-1.jpg as a single radical? Explain.
Accepted Solution
A:
The radicands are powers of the same base, so they can be written using rational exponents.
Simplify the quotient of the exponential expressions by getting a common denominator and subtracting exponents.
The simplified expression is the 4th root of y
