I think it may either be K = 1 or K = 2

K=4/3

Remember, nth root is the same as raising to the 1/nth power, thus you have (x^4)^(1/3), which is the same as x^(4/3).

K=4/3 ...

How can it be 1 or 2 ?

Assuming X and K are whole numbers, here we go. The mistake I've seen some people make is multiplying the value of x like this - X x 3 x 3. WRONG!! A cube is a number multiplied by itself 3 times - X x X x X. If the cube root of X is greater than 4 and we are dealing with whole numbers, then the cube root of X is 5 or more. The value of X would then be 125. Plug this into your formula and 125 > K

Looks like 4/3 to me. X^(4/3)....the 4 is the exponent, and the 3 is the cube root.

Cubed root of x^4 = (x^4)^(1/3) = x^((4*(1/3))=x^(4/3)
k=4/3

It's 4/3.

cubed root of x is x^(1/3)
so cubed root of x^4 is (x^4)^(1/3)
myltiply 4 by (1/3) it will be 4/3
so x^(4/3)=x^k
then k= 4/3

assume that you know the algebraic exponent rules...
such as (x^n) ^ m = x ^ nm etc

cube root of y = y^1/3 and so cube root of (x^4) is (x^4) ^ 1/3 = x^4/3 = x^k and hence k=4/3...

please tell us how you thought k=1 or k=2... there must be some logic... eager to know it !
