\[\sqrt{\left(\begin{matrix}64x^3 \\ 81y^7\end{matrix}\right)}=\sqrt{\left(\begin{matrix}8^2x^2\times x \\ 9^2(y^3)^2\times y\end{matrix}\right)}=\sqrt{\left(\begin{matrix}(8x)^2\times x \\ (9y^3)^2\times y\end{matrix}\right)}\]can you solve from here?
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
use the rule:\[\sqrt{a^2\times b}=a\sqrt{b}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so then....\[\left(\begin{matrix}8x^2 \sqrt{x} \\ 9y^3\sqrt{y}\end{matrix}\right)\]
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
almost...

but then do i have to rationalize the denominator?
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
the top term should be \(8x\sqrt{x}\) and not \(8x^2\sqrt{x}\)
OpenStudy (asnaseer):
this is a matrix - not a fraction, so no rationalization required
