Math Problem Statement

Simplify the expression \( \sqrt[7]{\frac{x^{14} \cdot y^{21} \cdot z^{35}}{y^{14} \cdot z^7}} \)

Solution

The expression in the image you provided can be simplified step by step. Let's break it down.

We have:

x14y21z35y14z77\sqrt[7]{\frac{x^{14} \cdot y^{21} \cdot z^{35}}{y^{14} \cdot z^7}}

Step 1: Simplify the numerator and denominator

First, simplify the fraction inside the radical.

Numerator: x14y21z35x^{14} \cdot y^{21} \cdot z^{35}

Denominator: y14z7y^{14} \cdot z^7

Now, cancel out the common powers of yy and zz:

y21y14=y2114=y7\frac{y^{21}}{y^{14}} = y^{21 - 14} = y^7 z35z7=z357=z28\frac{z^{35}}{z^7} = z^{35 - 7} = z^{28}

The fraction now becomes:

x14y7z281\frac{x^{14} \cdot y^7 \cdot z^{28}}{1}

Step 2: Apply the 7th root to each term

Now we apply the 7th root to the simplified expression:

[ \sqrt[7]{x^{14} \cdot y^7 \cdot z^{28}} = \sqrt[7]{x^{14}} \cdot \sqrt[7]{y^7} \cdot \sqrt[7]{z^{28}} ]

Now simplify each term:

x147=x14/7=x2\sqrt[7]{x^{14}} = x^{14/7} = x^2 y77=y7/7=y\sqrt[7]{y^7} = y^{7/7} = y z287=z28/7=z4\sqrt[7]{z^{28}} = z^{28/7} = z^4

Step 3: Final simplified expression

Putting everything together, the simplified form of the expression is:

x2yz4x^2 \cdot y \cdot z^4

So, the expression simplifies to x2yz4x^2 y z^4.
