simplify the radical expression. picture below :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so ! \[160=16.10\] then use \[\sqrt{a.b}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}\] so what's \[\sqrt{160}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??!!

OpenStudy (megannn):

are you saying simplify the square root of 16 and 10 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeaah !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you could !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-4\sqrt{160} \implies -4\sqrt{16 \times 10} \implies -4 \times 4\sqrt{10} \implies ?\]

OpenStudy (megannn):

i got 2 for 16 and 3.16 for 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're not supposed to use a calculator...I have done most of the simplifying. Just finish it up...

OpenStudy (megannn):

i got -4 squarerootof 10 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite... Multiply that by 4.

OpenStudy (megannn):

what do i multiply by 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-4 \times 4\sqrt{10}\]Just do that and you've got it.

OpenStudy (megannn):
