Answer

$\dfrac{x}{6y^4}$

Work Step by Step

RECALL: The quotient rule: $\sqrt[n]{\dfrac{a}{b}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[n]{a}}{\sqrt[n]{b}}$ where $\sqrt[n]{a}$ and $\sqrt[n]{b}$ are real numbers and $b\ne0$ Use the quotient rule above to obtain: $=\dfrac{\sqrt{x^2}}{\sqrt{36y^8}} \\=\dfrac{x}{\sqrt{(6y^4)^2}} \\=\dfrac{x}{6y^4}$
