@hartnn could you help me with another that's kind of similar?
sure
\[\large -21 \sqrt{27x^9}\]
I got \[\sqrt {27}=3 \sqrt{3}\]
it is sqrt3
correct go on \(\sqrt {x^9} =....\)
\(\sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt 3\) is correct
\[\large \sqrt {x^3} \times \sqrt {x^3}\]
hint : 9 = 8+1
\(\huge \sqrt{x^9} = \sqrt x \sqrt {x^8} = \sqrt x (x^8)^{1/2} =...\)
I'm not sure at all.
\(\Large \sqrt {x^n} = x^{n/2}\)
Okay I understand that sorta
so, \(\Large \sqrt{x^8 } = (x^8)^{1/2} = x^{8/2} =....\)
Ohh alright So x^4?
yes \(\huge \sqrt{x^9} = \sqrt x (x^8)^{1/2} =x^4 \sqrt x\) and final answer ?
\[\huge -63x^4 \sqrt {3x}\]
correct! :)
So I have another. \[\huge -2 \sqrt {243y^3}\] So I have \[\huge \sqrt {243}=9 \sqrt{3}\] Then I have \[\huge \sqrt {y^3}=\sqrt {y}\sqrt{y^2}=y \sqrt{y}\] So my final answer will be \[18y \sqrt{3y}\] Is that right?
excellent work! you just missed the negative sign, everything else is correct :)
Oh yeah thanks!
you learn fast :)
I did these a little in alg 1 but that was 4 years ago and couldn't remember too well. Lol. I didn't have to do these in any other math I took for high school so it was hard to remember.
