which of the following is equivalent to $60^{\frac{1}{2}}$?\n$\frac{60}{2}$\n$sqrt{60}$\n$\frac{1}{60^{2}}$\n$\frac{1}{sqrt{60}}$
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall exponent - root relationship
By the rule $a^{\frac{1}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{a}$, when $n = 2$ and $a = 60$, we have $60^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{60}$.
Answer:
$\sqrt{60}$ (corresponding to the second option)
