I wish that statement helped me.
I just don't understand how that second to last equation became the last equation.
y^3/2 is 1 and 1/2

>> y^3/2 is 1 and 1/2
I'm not sure what you mean by that.
How about you write y^(3/2) as (y^3)^(1/2) and work from there ? ie. :
(y^3)^(1/2) = x^7

I'm glad I could help. Although it's strange that none of my posts were selected as (part of) the answer ;)
