1. Problem Description

We need to determine the condition under which xn\sqrt[n]{x} is never negative when nn is an even natural number.

2. Solution Steps

When nn is an even natural number, xn\sqrt[n]{x} is defined only for non-negative values of xx.
That is, x0x \ge 0.
When x=0x=0, then 0n=0\sqrt[n]{0}=0, which is non-negative.
When x>0x>0, xn\sqrt[n]{x} will always be a positive number.
For example, if n=2n=2 and x=4x=4, 42=2\sqrt[2]{4} = 2, which is positive.
If n=4n=4 and x=16x=16, 164=2\sqrt[4]{16} = 2, which is positive.
Therefore, xn\sqrt[n]{x} is never negative when x0x \ge 0 and nn is an even natural number.

3. Final Answer

x0x \ge 0
