Rules of Roots Combined - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

Let's begin by calculating the numerical value of each of the roots in the given options:

$\sqrt{25}=5\\ \sqrt{16}=4\\ \sqrt{9}=3\\$We can determine that:

5>4>3>1 Therefore, the correct answer is option A

Let's start with a reminder of the definition of a root as a power:

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}$

We will then use the fact that raising the number 1 to any power always yields the result 1, particularly raising it to the power of half of the square root (which we obtain by using the definition of root as a power mentioned earlier),

In other words:

$$$\sqrt{30}\cdot\sqrt{1}= \\ \downarrow\\ \sqrt{30}\cdot\sqrt[2]{1}=\\ \sqrt{30}\cdot 1^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ \sqrt{30} \cdot1=\\ \boxed{\sqrt{30}}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer C.

Let's start by recalling how to define a root as a power:

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}$

Next, we will remember that raising 1 to any power will always yield the result 1, even the half power of the square root.

In other words:

$$$\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt{1}= \\ \downarrow\\ \sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt[2]{1}=\\ \sqrt{16}\cdot 1^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ \sqrt{16} \cdot1=\\ \sqrt{16} =\\ \boxed{4}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer D.

Let's start by recalling how to define a square root as a power:

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}$

Next, we remember that raising 1 to any power always gives us 1, even the half power we got from converting the square root.

In other words:

$$$\sqrt{1} \cdot \sqrt{2}= \\ \downarrow\\ \sqrt[2]{1}\cdot \sqrt{2}=\\ 1^{\frac{1}{2}} \cdot\sqrt{2} =\\ 1\cdot\sqrt{2}=\\ \boxed{\sqrt{2}}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer a.

We use the zero exponent rule.

$X^0=1$We obtain

$112^0=1$Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

To solve the exercise we use the power property:$(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}$

We use the property with our exercise and solve:

$(3^5)^4=3^{5\times4}=3^{20}$

We use the formula:

$(a^n)^m=a^{n\times m}$

Therefore, we obtain:

$6^{2\times13}=6^{26}$

Let's keep in mind that the numerator and denominator of the fraction have terms with the same base, therefore we use the property of powers to divide between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$We apply it in the problem:

$\frac{2^4}{2^3}=2^{4-3}=2^1$Remember that any number raised to the 1st power is equal to the number itself, meaning that:

$b^1=b$Therefore, in the problem we obtain:

$2^1=2$Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

Note that in the fraction and its denominator, there are terms with the same base, so we will use the law of exponents for division between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$ Let's apply it to the problem:

$\frac{9^9}{9^3}=9^{9-3}=9^6$$$Therefore, the correct answer is b.

To simplify the given expression, we use two laws of exponents:

A. Defining the root as an exponent:

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}$B. The law of exponents for dividing powers with the same base (in the opposite direction):

$x^n\cdot y^n =(x\cdot y)^n$

Let's start by using the law of exponents shown in A:

$\sqrt{10}\cdot\sqrt{3}= \\ \downarrow\\ 10^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot3^{\frac{1}{2}}=$We continue, since we have a multiplication between two terms with equal exponents, we can use the law of exponents shown in B and combine them under the same base which is raised to the same exponent:

$10^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot3^{\frac{1}{2}}= \\ (10\cdot3)^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ 30^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ \boxed{\sqrt{30}}$In the last steps, we performed the multiplication of the bases and used the definition of the root as an exponent shown earlier in A (in the opposite direction) to return to the root notation.

Therefore, the correct answer is B.

We can simplify the expression without using the laws of exponents, because the expression has known square roots, so let's simplify the expression and then perform the multiplication:

$\sqrt{100}\cdot\sqrt{25}=\\ 10\cdot5=\\ \boxed{50}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer D.

We can simplify the expression directly without using the laws of exponents, since the expression has known square roots, so let's simplify the expression and then perform the multiplication:

$\sqrt{25}\cdot\sqrt{4}=\\ 5\cdot2=\\ \boxed{10}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer C.

We can simplify the expression without using the laws of exponents, since the expression has known square roots, so let's simplify the expression and then perform the multiplication:

$\sqrt{9}\cdot\sqrt{4}=\\ 3\cdot2=\\ \boxed{6}$Therefore, the correct answer is answer B.

Let's simplify the expression. First, we'll reduce the fraction under the square root, then we'll calculate the result of the root:

$\sqrt{\frac{225}{25}}= \\ \sqrt{9}\\ \boxed{3}$Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

In order to simplify the given expression we use two laws of exponents:

A. Defining the root as an exponent:

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}}$B. The law of exponents for dividing powers with the same bases (in the opposite direction):

$x^n\cdot y^n =(x\cdot y)^n$

Let's start by changing the square roots to exponents using the law of exponents shown in A:

$\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{5}= \\ \downarrow\\ 2^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot5^{\frac{1}{2}}=$We continue: since we are multiplying two terms with equal exponents we can use the law of exponents shown in B and combine them together as the same base raised to the same power:

$2^{\frac{1}{2}}\cdot5^{\frac{1}{2}}= \\ (2\cdot5)^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ 10^{\frac{1}{2}}=\\ \boxed{\sqrt{10}}$In the last steps wemultiplied the bases and then used the definition of the root as an exponent shown earlier in A (in the opposite direction) to return to the root notation.

Therefore, the correct answer is answer B.
