Step-by-step explanation:
“must be used first” is a very hard phrasing. multiplication is commutative.
and I am not sure that the problem is stated correctly.
I read here
(i×y²) to the power of 1/3.
i is the imaginary constant sqrt(-1) ?
exponents brought themselves to the power of something else multiply.
e.g.
exponents in multimedia expressions of the same base simply add up.
e.g.
a negative exponent means that the expression with the same positive exponent is just at the bottom of a division.
e.g.
and a fraction as exponent specifies a root to be taken.
e.g
so, I would do all the exponent multiplications to simplify the expression.
1/2 × 1/3 = 1/6
2 × 1/3 = 2/3
so, as we can see, we can move freely from multiplying the fraction exponents to converting them into root expressions and vice versa.
