Explanation:
The only way this may be simplified is by expressing as a fractional exponent.
color(orange)"Reminder " color(red)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)(sqrtx=x^(1/2))color(white)(a/a)|)))
rArrsqrt(x^5)=(x^5)^(1/2)
color(orange)"Reminder " color(red)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)((a^m)^n=a^(mn))color(white)(a/a)|)))
rArr(x^5)^(1/2)=x^(5xx1/2)=x^(5/2)
rArrsqrt(x^5)=x^(5/2)
