5 to the power of one third
5 to the power of one sixth
5 to the power of two thirds
5 to the power of three halves

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 to the power of one sixth

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt[2]{\sqrt[3]{5}}\\(5^{\frac{1}{3}})^{\frac{1}{2}}\\5^{\frac{1}{6}}[/tex]

Answer:

First option: 5 to the power of one sixth ( [tex]5^{\frac{1}{6}}[/tex])

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to remember the following:

[tex]\sqrt[n]{\sqrt[m]{a} }=\sqrt[nm]{a}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[n]{a}=a^{\frac{1}{n}[/tex]

 In this case, given:

[tex]\sqrt[2]{\sqrt[3]{5} }[/tex]

You can identify that:

[tex]n=2[/tex] and  [tex]m=3[/tex]

Therefore, knowing this, you can conclude that:

[tex]=\sqrt[2*3]{5}=\sqrt[6]{5}=5^{\frac{1}{6}}[/tex]

You can observe that this answer matches with the second option.
