Inventory System Formula Migration
As a technical documentation specialist at Nexus Logistics, you are updating the standards manual for the company's automated inventory system. The legacy system currently records dimensions using radical expressions: the square root of (Base Width), the cube root of (Height), and the fourth root of (Depth). The new database system requires these formulas to be entered using rational exponents.
In a brief technical memo for the database team:
- State the general algebraic rule for converting a radical with index into a rational exponent.
- Provide the equivalent rational exponent form for the three specific variables (, , and ).
- Identify the conventional index used for the square root of and explain how this index is reflected in its rational exponent form.

A technician is updating a technical manual for a logistics company. Match each radical expression found in the old manual with its equivalent rational exponent form used in the new digital database.
A data analyst is updating a spreadsheet that calculates the dimensions of specialized parts. The current formula uses a radical symbol to find the fourth root of a measurement variable 'z'. To make the formula compatible with a new database system that only accepts exponents, the analyst needs to rewrite the fourth root of z using a rational exponent. Which of the following is the correct expression?
