$\left(\frac{-1+\sqrt{p}\cdot \sqrt{p}}{\sqrt{p}}\right)^2$
Learn how to solve simplification of algebraic expressions problems step by step online. Simplify the expression (p^1/2+-1/(p^1/2))^2. Combine \sqrt{p}+\frac{-1}{\sqrt{p}} in a single fraction. When multiplying two powers that have the same base (\sqrt{p}), you can add the exponents. Simplify \left(\sqrt{p}\right)^2 using the power of a power property: \left(a^m\right)^n=a^{m\cdot n}. In the expression, m equals \frac{1}{2} and n equals 2. Multiply \frac{1}{2} times 2.
