Can anyone help me, please ?
\[\Large \sqrt{48}\] \[\Large \sqrt{16*3}\] \[\Large \sqrt{16}*\sqrt{3}\] \[\Large 4*\sqrt{3}\] So \[\Large \sqrt{48} = 4*\sqrt{3}\]
Use this idea to simplify the other roots. Then combine like terms.
Tell me what you get when you simplify them.
Okay... one second.
alright
So it is either b or c.
what makes you say that?
OH, wait ..it's A. I think.
\[\Large \sqrt{75}\] \[\Large \sqrt{25*3}\] \[\Large \sqrt{25}*\sqrt{3}\] \[\Large 5*\sqrt{3}\] This means \[\Large \sqrt{75} = 5*\sqrt{3}\]
\[\Large \sqrt{192}\] \[\Large \sqrt{64*3}\] \[\Large \sqrt{64}*\sqrt{3}\] \[\Large 8*\sqrt{3}\] This means \[\Large \sqrt{192} = 8*\sqrt{3}\]
I'm still confused.
Put it all together to get... \[\Large \sqrt{48}-\sqrt{75}+\sqrt{192}\] \[\Large 4*\sqrt{3}-5*\sqrt{3}+8*\sqrt{3}\] \[\Large (4-5+8)*\sqrt{3}\] \[\Large 7\sqrt{3}\] So \[\Large \sqrt{48}-\sqrt{75}+\sqrt{192}=7\sqrt{3}\]
That's where I got confused, in the parenthesis.
you basically factor out the GCF sqrt(3) and you combine like terms
See that's what I was missing,.
does it all make sense now?
Um, yes I understand it beteter.
*better.
alright that's great
