Question

Plz ASAP
If u could not use the ^ symbol when explaining that would be greatly appreciated. It is hard to read what it is sometimes using that symbol :)
I just don’t understand how to solve it, don’t need the answer

Answer 1

forget the numerator of the fraction for now; the x to-the-power    -3/6    is equal to x to-the-power    -1/2    -- x^(-1/2)

use the rule a^-b= 1/(a^b)

to get:     x to-the-power  -(-1/2) which = x^1/2
