How do you simplify this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }\sqrt{63x ^{3}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Factor 63 into primes look for perfect squares

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how much or radicals have you learned?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9*7=63..so sqrt 63=3 root 7..this cancels out threes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3^{3}\] is a perfect square and this is my fourth lesson

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*\[3^{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you havent ill just erase this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u have no idea how confused i am...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just forget what i posted

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but do you know how to do the question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope :I

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do the same thing with the factor tree :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only with the 63 the fraction is only there to scare u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3^{2}\times7\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok you can only take out the 3 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait what do i do with the 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cancel it with the three in 2/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well ill ask you you have a 3 and a fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is \[-2\sqrt{7x}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are not done yet though you still have more to go

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope it is it was x "cubed"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor that out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that will be your final answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor \[x ^{3}?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do u do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what makes up x3 how do you get x "cubed"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x*x*x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep now factor that out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same as you did with the factor tree

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm square root of x^2 is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have square root of x^2 cube root " "

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

EX a^3 a a a square root you will take 2 out __________ / a a a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what are you left with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how do i write it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a^1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is still 1 a inside correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and its 2:00 am here

OpenStudy (anonymous):
