how do you simplify this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[7(\sqrt{2}/2) -2(\sqrt{2}/2)\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf 7\left(\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) - 2 \left(\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)\\ \textit{if we make say }\left(\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) = a\\ \textit{then it'd look like}\\ 7a - 2a \implies \square?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5a

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf 7a - 2a \implies 5a \implies 5\left(\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) \implies 5 \times \left(\cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) \implies \cfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\)
