^3square root of 343 + 3/4 ^3 square root of -8
do you understand the problem? I am having difficulty in drawing it out
no but i am going to make a guess that the first part is \(\sqrt[3]{343}\) is that right?
open the file below: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/52240971/Screen%20shot%202012-06-29%20at%202.47.36%20PM.png
and maybe the second part is \(\frac{3}{4}\sqrt[3]{-8}\) ?
i got an error
correct ... + 3/4
multiple choices: 1. 5 1/2 2. 8 1/2 3. -8 1/2 4. -5 1/2
ok then \[\sqrt[3]{-8}=-2\] because \((-2)^3=-8\) and \[\sqrt[3]{343}=7\]because \(7^3=343\)
so your last job is to compute \[7+\frac{3}{4}\times (-2)\]
I got 5 1/2 (a) thanks a lot :) can you help me with just one more ?
square root of 32x^3y^5/-5 square root of 2xy
multiple choice: 1. 4xy^2/5 2. - 4xy^2/-5 3. 5xy^2/4 4. - 5xy^2/-4
let me try to write it \[\frac{\sqrt{32x^3y^5}}{-5\sqrt{xy}}\] is that correct?
the first part is correct but you forgot to include a (2) before (xy)
\[\frac{\sqrt{32x^3y^5}}{-5\sqrt{2xy}}\]
perfect
ok then first step is to divide inside the radical and get \[\frac{\sqrt{16x^2y^4}}{-5}\] then the take the square root in the numerator and get \[\frac{4xy^2}{-5}\]
thank you so much for your help and time :)
i don't see the right answer though, are you sure you copied them correctly ?
yes, it's (b)
ok but there are two minus signs in b and there should only be one in the answer
oh that's right, I made a mistake but its b on my sheet :)
