√36x^2
4√32m^7 n^9
Simplify radical expressions
A. 4√ 7• 5√7
B. 5√-5•5√-2
What is the simplest Form?
3√ 128x^7
Simplest form?
√45x^5y^3• √35xy^4
√50x^6/√2x^4
3√ (128x^7) = 3√( 64*2*x^7) = 3*8√ (x^7) = 24x3√ x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
√(45x^5y^3) • √(35xy^4) ....let's simplify this one separately and then combine what we've got
√(45x^5y^3) = √(9*5*x^5*y^3)= 3x2y√(5xy)
√(35xy^4) = y2√(35x)
So multiplying both of these, we have
3x2y3√(175x2y) = 3x3y3√(25*7*y) = 5*3x3y3√(7y) = 15x3y3√(7y)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
√50x^6/√2x^4 ........we can write this as √(50x^6/(2x^4)) ....and simplifying, we have
√(25x^2) = 5x .........pretty easy, once you simplify, huh??
I'll do a few for you:
I assume the first one is √(36x2) = √36*√x2 = √62*√x2 = 6x
4√(32m7n9) = 4√32√m7√n9 = 4√(42*2)*√(m6*m)*√(n8*n) = 4*4√2*m3√m*n4√n = 16m3n4√(2*m*n)
B. This is a tricky one! 5√(-5)*5*√(-2) = 5*i*√5*5*i*√2 where i is the "imaginary" number √(-1)
Since i2 = -1, we have 5√(-5)*5*√(-2) = 25*i2*√5*√2 = -25√10
3√ (128x^7) = 3√( 64*2*x^7) = 3*8√ (x^7) = 24x3√ x
