    Indices Positive
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a request for help in simplifying expressions with positive indices. The poster provides several mathematical expressions but does not share their own answers for verification. Participants express skepticism about the request, suggesting that without the poster's answers, it is impossible to confirm correctness. Concerns are raised about the potential for someone to seek answers without having made an effort themselves. The conversation highlights the importance of sharing one's work for effective assistance in mathematical problem-solving.

Hey folks.
I thought i might check my answers and confirm if theyre right or not.
the following have to be simplified and expressed with positive indices.
Below are the indices;

1. (√a^2b^3)^6

2. (x^a y^-b)^3 (x^3 y^2)^-a

3. (27x^3/8a^-3)^-2/3

4. {4√(x^-2/3 y^1/2)^3)}^-2/3

5. (4a^-2/ 9x^2)^1/2

6. (x * n√x 1/2)n^2/1-n

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
:smile:

You do understand, don't you, that it is impossible for us to check your answers and confirm if they are right or not when you didn't tell us what your answers were?

(There might be some evil people who would suspect that you don't really have any answers yourself but were hoping we would be foolish enough to post our own answers here so you could copy them. I would never think that myself! I mean it would be foolish to do that- someone might post wrong answers!)
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
