Description

Describe what this variable represents, and list any assumptions made about its value.

Can an exam override the value of this variable?

Generated value: `integer`

This variable doesn't seem to be used anywhere.

Advice

To rewrite $\sqrt[\var{m}]{x^\var{n}}$ in the form $x^n$ , we need to use the following 2 rules:

$\sqrt[n]{a} = a^{1/n}$ ;
$\left(a^n\right)^m = a^{n \times m}$ .

Applying rule 1:

$\sqrt[\var{m}]{x^\var{n}} = \left(x^\var{n}\right)^\simplify[fractionNumbers]{{1/m}}.$

Then applying rule 2 and simplifying:

$\begin{split}\left(x^\var{n}\right)^\simplify[fractionNumbers]{{1/m}} &\,= x^{\var{n} \times \simplify[fractionNumbers]{{1/m}}} \\ &\,=x^{\simplify[fractionNumbers]{{n/m}}}. \end{split}$

Give a worked solution to the whole question.
