\[? + 2\sqrt{5}\]
OpenStudy (yttrium):
Apply distribution.
Like (a+b) (c+d) = ac + ad + bc + bd
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so, \[(\sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5})+(\sqrt{5} \times 2)+(4 \times \sqrt{5})+(4 \times 2)\] ?
OpenStudy (yttrium):
Check your signs.

all I know is -8 in the last set of parentheses. How do I times a square root to anything?
OpenStudy (yttrium):
It's 5 + -2sqrt5 + 4 sqrt 5 - 8
which is equal to -3+ 2 sqrt5
sorry but i have to go
