AN3 - Solving Problems that involve radical equations
When solving radical equations, always state restrictions first
Verify all solutions in the original equation to check for extraneous roots
→ Isolate the radical
.
State the restrictions...

Rational exponents:
Rational exponents are exponents that are rational numbers, rather self-explanatory, right?
Ex's
There is another way to express a rational exponent, using radicals. The most common radical is the square root.
=
.
In general there are two types of rational exponents:
Simple Roots, where:
When the denominator is 2 we have b ½ = = , the square root, where we normally don't write the 2. When the denominator is 3, we have = which is referred to as the cube root.
Complex roots where:
Convert to radical form:
