Add. Simplify by collecting like radical terms if possible 18 sqrt 80 + 6 sqrt 80 =

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since the number in the square root is the same just add the coefficients on the outside: 24sqrt(80)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you simply because 80 can be written in factored form as : 16 x 5. Sqrt(16 x 5) = 4 sqrt (5) So finally we have 72sqrt(5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
