Which of the following terms best describes an exponent that has the forn m/n where m and n are integers? A. Complex number B. Rational Equation C. rational Exponent D. Like Radicals

Respuesta :

C. a rational exponent because m/n is a rational equation and is an exponent in this case

Answer with explanation:

A number of the form ,[tex]\frac{m}{n}[/tex],  where m and n are integers are called Rational number when, n≠0.

Let, ,[tex]p=\frac{m}{n}[/tex],

Then Exponent Raised to power, , that is ,[tex]\frac{m}{n}[/tex],

 [tex](\text{Exponent})^{\text{Rational}}=e^{\frac{m}{n}}=e^p[/tex]

 Option C: Rational Exponent
