Answer:

C. [tex]x^2y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression [tex](x^4y^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }\\[/tex]

Using the law of indices;

[tex](a^m)^n = a^{mn}[/tex]

[tex](x^4y^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }\\\\= (x^4)^{\frac{1}{2}} (y^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }\\= x^{4*1/2}y^{2*1/2}\\= x^{2}y[/tex]

Hence the correct answer is [tex]x^2y[/tex]
