Question

what is the product of simplify if possible

Answer 1

._. mm didn't show up

Answer 2

\[\sqrt{t}(8-3\sqrt{5})\]

Answer 3

What do you get when you distribute your \[\sqrt{t}\]?

Answer 4

\[5\sqrt{5t}\]@eSpeX thats what i got

Answer 5

But you do not have the same thing under the radical so how can you subtract them?

Answer 6

on both sides

Answer 7

\[\sqrt{t}(8-3\sqrt{5}) \rightarrow 8\sqrt{t}-3\sqrt{5}\sqrt{t} \rightarrow 8\sqrt{t}-3\sqrt{5t}\] Since they are not the same I do not see how you subtract them or what you mean by "on both sides".

Answer 8

you would 8-3

Answer 9

@eSpeX

Answer 10

You cannot subtract 8 from 3 because what you have multiplied by each of them is not the same.

Answer 11

In other words, once you distribute you cannot simplify any further.
