simplify the radical in my comment since i don't know how to on here :l
\[\sqrt{75x}\] the x is squared
\[\sqrt{ab} = \sqrt{a} \sqrt{b}\]
ok so it is \[\sqrt{75}\] x \[\sqrt{x ^{2}}\]
What I meant to suggest is that 75 can be factored so that one of the factors is a perfect square. Namely 25.
\[\Huge{\sqrt{75}\times \sqrt{x^2}}\]?????? Is ur question this??
or\[\Huge{\sqrt{75x^2}}\]
I can't understand the question properly....
I see. But still, the \[\sqrt{75}\] can be simplified too.
it says simplify. assume all variable represent positive values. then it gives me this expression. \[\sqrt{75x ^{2}}\]
So this can be factored into \[\sqrt{25}\] \[\sqrt{3}\] \[\sqrt{x^2}\]
Should be all on one line.
\[\Large{\sqrt{75x^2}=\sqrt{5\times5\times3\times x \times x}=5x \sqrt{3}}\]
so i should do a "factor tree" for the 75 and since the x is squared it is x times x
so did you get this all figured out?
