simplify:
\[\sqrt{72}-\sqrt{147}-5\sqrt{8}+3\sqrt{48}\]
a.-2sqrt35 b.sqrt5 c.-8+5sqrt6 d.-4sqrt2+5sqrt3
\[\sqrt{72}=\sqrt{36\times2}=6\sqrt{2}\] \[\sqrt{147}=\sqrt{49\times3}=7\sqrt{3}\] \[\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{4\times2}=2\sqrt{2}\] \[\sqrt{48}=\sqrt{16\times3}=4\sqrt{3}\] complete the answer.
ok give me onw minute to figure it out
I got D. -4sqrt2+5sqrt3 is that correct @terenzreignz
Yup, it is :)
can you check one more for me in a minute please
\[6\sqrt[3]{5}-\sqrt[4]{5}+2\sqrt[3]{5}+4\sqrt[4]{5}\]
Good job.
a.11sqrt5 b.\[8\sqrt[3]{5}+3\sqrt[4]{5}\] c.11sqrt10 d.\[8\sqrt[3]{10}+3\sqrt[4]{10}\] i got A
is my answer correct @Jhannybean and @terenzreignz
Unfortunately no :) Why complicate things? Just combine like terms :D
oh k i will try that
i am confused icombined like terms and my answer doesnt match any of my choices
\begin{align} \large \sqrt{72}-\sqrt{147}-5\sqrt{8}+3\sqrt{48} &= \large 6\sqrt{2} - 7\sqrt{3} -5(2\sqrt{2})+3(4\sqrt{3}) \\ &=\large \color{red}{6\sqrt{2}} -\color{blue}{7\sqrt{3}} -\color{red}{5(2\sqrt{2})} +\color{blue}{3(4\sqrt{3})} \\ \end{align}
Match the colors, simplify the highlighted stuff.
ok thanks
i got\[8\sqrt[3]{10}+3\sqrt[4]{10}\]
@Jhannybean
\[\large \color{red}{6\sqrt{2}} -\color{blue}{7\sqrt{3}} -\color{red}{5(2\sqrt{2})} +\color{blue}{3(4\sqrt{3})}\]\[\large (6\sqrt{2}-10\sqrt{2})+(12\sqrt{3}-7\sqrt{3})\]Can you simplify this forme?
do i distribute?
No...just simplify what is inside the parenthesis. You cannot combine the stuff with the \(\sqrt{2}\) attached to them with \(\sqrt{3}\) unless you multiply them together, we're not using that operant here so combining them is not an option. Think of \(\sqrt{2}\) and \(\sqrt{3}\) as x and y values. They cannot be combined here :)
Using colours to emphasise? That's my play, @Jhannybean >:( LOL JK
xD
-4sqrt2+5sqrt3
Good job : )
butthat isnt one of my answer choices
these are my answer choices; a.11sqrt5 b.85 √ 3 +35 √ 4 c.11sqrt10 d.810 − − √ 3 +310 − −
d i supose to be \[8\sqrt[3]{10}+3\sqrt[4]{}\]
and bis supose to be \[8\sqrt[3]{5}+3\sqrt[4]{5}\]
@Jhannybean
That's not even one of your answer choices... a.-2sqrt35 b.sqrt5 c.-8+5sqrt6 d.-4sqrt2+5sqrt3
the only other one that has a radical in it is b so is that going to be my answer
you have radicals in all your solutions??
your looking at the first question i am doing the second one and i reposted the answer choices
Oh,sorry, i didn't see that one.
\[\large 6\sqrt[3]{5}-\sqrt[4]{5}+2\sqrt[3]{5}+4\sqrt[4]{5}\] For this one just combine like terms,once again. You got what answer?
i got d
i ment b sorry
\[8\sqrt[3]{5}+3\sqrt[4]{}\]
<_<... Lets work it out :P
\[\large (6\sqrt[3]{5}+2\sqrt[3]{5})+(4\sqrt[4]{5}-1\sqrt[4]{5})\]
And yes, you get \(\large 8\sqrt[3]{5} +3\sqrt[4]{5} \)
so im correct
Yes :)
thankss
