Math Problem Statement

sqrt((x^(2/3)+y^(2/3))/x^(2/3

Solution

It looks like you're asking to simplify the following expression:

x2/3+y2/3x2/3\sqrt{\frac{x^{2/3} + y^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}}}

Let's break it down step by step:

  1. The expression inside the square root is:

x2/3+y2/3x2/3\frac{x^{2/3} + y^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}}

  1. We can split the fraction into two terms:

x2/3x2/3+y2/3x2/3\frac{x^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}} + \frac{y^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}}

  1. Simplify the first part, x2/3x2/3=1\frac{x^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}} = 1, so the expression becomes:

1+y2/3x2/31 + \frac{y^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}}

  1. y2/3x2/3\frac{y^{2/3}}{x^{2/3}} can be written as (yx)2/3\left(\frac{y}{x}\right)^{2/3}, which simplifies the expression to:

1+(yx)2/31 + \left(\frac{y}{x}\right)^{2/3}

  1. Now, we take the square root of the entire expression:

1+(yx)2/3\sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{y}{x}\right)^{2/3}}

This is the simplified form of the expression.
