can someone help me add and subtract radical expressions

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

Hav u any questions on this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i cant add and subtract these radicals withe cube roots

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 3root2+ 3root81-3root54

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3root21****

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3root21+ 3root81-3root54 is the problem

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

3root21 or 3root27?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg my bad its 3root24, im so sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24+81-54 all cubed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and rooted

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

if u dnt mind can u draw ur ques?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes\[\sqrt[3]{24}+\sqrt[3]{81}-\sqrt[3]{54}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you there?

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

\(\sqrt[3]{24}=\sqrt[3]{2*2*2*3}\) \(=2\sqrt[3]{3}\) \(\sqrt[3]{81}=\sqrt[3]{3*3*3*3}\) \(=3\sqrt[3]{3}\) \(\sqrt[3]{54}=\sqrt[3]{3*3*3*2}\) \(=3\sqrt[3]{2}\) \(2\sqrt[3]{3}+3\sqrt[3]{3}-3\sqrt[3]{2}\) Treat \(\sqrt[3]{3}\) as x and \(\sqrt[3]{2}\) as y. Then u hav \(2x+3x-3y\) \(=5x-3y\) \(=5\sqrt[3]{3}-3\sqrt[3]{2}\) Is that clear?

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

Is t clear?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes,completly

OpenStudy (ajprincess):
