Simplify the given expression: √-10 times √-8
sqrt(2*5)*sqrt(2*2*2)=sqrt(2*2*2*2*5)=2*2sqrt(5)=4sqrt(5)
wait wait is that a negative?
forget everything I said
Yes!
haha okay
and is there an i in the answer? like as in imaginary numbers
ye then it's goes like: i d0Nt KnoW
\[i \sqrt{10}\times i \sqrt{8}\]
\[i ^{2}\times \sqrt{80}\]
\[i ^{2}\times 4\sqrt{5}\]
\[-4\sqrt{5}\]
cblr did it correctly except you for the imaginary part write sqrt(-10)*sqrt(-8) as i * sqrt(10)* i * sqrt(8) or i *i* sqrt(10)* sqrt(8) now you can do cblrtopas idea but you also have a i*i out front (which you know is equal to -1)
i=sqrt(-1) I think. So, i*sqrt(10)*i*sqrt(8) --> i^2*sqrt(80)=-4*sqrt(2)
the idea is break the numbers 10 and 8 into their factors, and pull out pairs of numbers from out of the square root.
I mean -4*sqrt(5)
My choices are: A. -4√5 B. 4√5 C. 4i√5 D. -4i√5
D it up
Now help me with my problems
yeah i narrowed it down to A and D. i know it's negative, i just dont know if theres an i or not
No, it's A seriously
hahaha okay thanks
what subject are you working on?
It's A
It's my can; y'see....I'm just kidding have a good day sir.
