Yes, and then cancel the sqrt(2x) from the numerator & denominator; so you'd end up with sqrt(125x^8) * sqrt(x^7).
You can multiply what's inside the square roots to get (sqrt(125x^15)) and then simplify that to = (x^7)(sqrt(125x))

Sorry, it looks really messy typed out..
OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):
okay......haha
OpenStudy (anonymous):
haha hope it was all understandable :)
OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):
so \[\sqrt {125x^8} \sqrt {x^7}\]
\(\sqrt {125x^{15}}\)
\(x^7 \sqrt {125x}\)

Yes :)
