PLEASE HELP!! 2.Helen and Stephen both simplify the exponential expression . Helen:
Stephen:
Unfortunately, they both made an error. Identify where each person made his or her error and explain in words what he or she did wrong. Then, correctly simplify the expression.

We start with the expression:

exp( (4/3)*ln(2) - 1)

Here we can use that:

exp(ln(x)) = x.

and e^(a + b) = e^a*e^b.

the first step here is:

e^((4/3)*ln(2) - 1) = e^((4/3)*ln(2)*e^(-1)

So the first step of Stephen is correct, but the first step of helen is not, you can not simplify the expression in that way.

now, we have that:

a*ln(x) = ln(x^a)

then we can write:

(4/3)*ln(2) = ln(2^(4/3))

and e^(ln(2^(4/3)) = 2^(4/3)

then we have:

e^((4/3)*ln(2)*e^(-1) = 2^(4/3)/e

now we can write this as:

∛(2^4)/e

here is where stephen makes the mistake, he uses the 4 in the rooth and the 3 in the power.

so the expression actually is:

∛(16)/e
