If the exponent or raised power of a number is in the form of p/q the exponent is said to be rational exponent. For example= 11/2 22/3
You can use any number - rational or otherwise - as an exponent.
And exponent of -2 represents the square root
rational numbers are commonly referred to as fractions Any root ... square root, cube root, etc can be expressed as a rational exponent sq rt of x = x1/2 cube root of x = x1/3 if there is an exponent inside the radical you can also have rational exponents with some numerator other than 1 ex 4th root of x3 = x3/4

If the exponent or raised power of a number is in the form of p/q the exponent is said to be rational exponent. For example= 11/2 22/3
A rational exponent is an exponent in the form of a fraction. Many financial formulas use rational exponents. Compound interest is formula that uses rational exponents.
You can use any number - rational or otherwise - as an exponent.

No, it is an expression, not an equation.
Rational, since it can be written as 25/1 .
An example is the 2/3 in 122/3.
1/3

It means that it is an exponent, and that it is not a rational number - i.e., one that can be written as a fraction of two integers.
