will someone help ,me please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-\sqrt{8}-4\sqrt{7}+2\sqrt{72}-2\sqrt{7}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all you can do is simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

combine like radicals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u work it out and show me please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can further simplify -\[\sqrt{8}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-\sqrt{8}\] is really -\[\sqrt{4x2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the 4 comes out as a 2 because the sq root of 4 is 2. put it out front with the negative sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2\[-\sqrt{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

crap

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2√2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the -4√7 and -2√7 become -6√7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2√72 can be 2√(9)(8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9 pops out as 3, multiply it with the 2 to get 6√8, this further simplifies too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6√(4)(2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 pops out as 2, times it by 6 for 12√2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

combine that with our other √2 we first simplified

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10√2 - 6√7 all done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, you cant simplify any further

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u mind putin it all togther how do do it i want to try it on my own

OpenStudy (anonymous):
