We want to rationalize the denominator in the expression 2y over root 3y.
00:07
Remember that rationalize means to remove root functions.
00:10
So by rationalizing the denominator, we mean we want to rewrite this expression, such as there are no square roots, cube roots, or any other eighth roots in the denominator or in the bottom.
00:20
In order to solve an expression involving roots and exponentials, we have to understand the most important exponent in root rules, which have just now noted here.
00:30
Rules a through g or all seven of these rules are not necessarily.
00:33
For solving this one problem, but they'll allow you to solve the majority of problems similar to this one, so they're worth noting for any future tests or homework.
00:40
Rule a is also important, since it connects the root function, the exponential function, which allows us to use b through g for roots as well as exponents...
