Math Problem Statement

x\sqrt{x^{6}}

Solution

Let's simplify the expression:

xx6x \sqrt{x^6}

Step 1: Simplify the square root

Recall that the square root of x6x^6 can be written as:

x6=x62=x3\sqrt{x^6} = x^{\frac{6}{2}} = x^3

Step 2: Multiply the expression

Now, substitute this result back into the original expression:

xx3x \cdot x^3

By using the rule of exponents xaxb=xa+bx^a \cdot x^b = x^{a+b}, we get:

x1+3=x4x^{1+3} = x^4

Final Answer:

xx6=x4x \sqrt{x^6} = x^4
