Question

Answer 3

@amistre64 sorry to bother you for such a simple problem but no one comes <_<

Answer 4

you have all even exponents; dividing by 2 gets rid of the sqrts

Answer 5

\[8\sqrt{v^2} - \sqrt{v^4} - \sqrt{9v^2} + \sqrt{16v^4}\]
\[8\sqrt{v^2} - \sqrt{v^4} - 3\sqrt{v^2} + 4\sqrt{v^4}\]
\[8v^{2/2} - v^{4/2} - 3v^{2/2} + 4v^{4/2}\]
\[8v - v^{2} - 3v + 4v^{2}\]

Answer 6

Ohh ok I did that but I did some things wrong but I get it now

Answer 7

Thanks a bunch saved me a lot of time xD

Answer 8

That's a neat way to do it to, I haven't learned it like that yet but it will come in handy and seems very quick too.
