Try multiplying top and bottom by \((\sqrt{a}-\sqrt{b})\).\[\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get \[(\sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b})^{2}/a-b\] by using across's method, which does rationalise the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is that the answer?

OpenStudy (across):

The plus at the top should be a negative, but that's the correct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is this the answer? \[\left(\begin{matrix}(\sqrt{a}-\sqrt{b})^{2} \\ a-b\end{matrix}\right)\]
