@Daniellelovee

If the radical is the same, you just subtract the numbers outside of it.

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Thanks.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

So you get..?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

So C?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Yes

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Can you help with a few more? @dtan5457

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

sure

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Please help with these as well

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

@dtan5457

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Ok for the first you one you need to simplify out the radicals, because when you have like radicals for 2 terms, you can add or subtract them. For example, radical 48 can be simplified to 4(radical3) What can -radical54 be simplified too?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

\[\sqrt{48}=\sqrt{16\times3}=4\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Try and simplify radical 54

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

how

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Sorry I'm confused

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

@dtan5457

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Find a perfect square that goes into 54 like I did for 48

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

What is it? @dtan5457

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

And I have a few more

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

@dtan5457 I'm confused what is a radical?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Is it 9?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

are you still talking about the last question?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Yes lol

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Is the answer C?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

or B? maybe?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

number 3

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

What's the answer?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

\[7\sqrt{3}-4\sqrt{6}+4\sqrt{3}-3\sqrt{6}\] i simplified all the radicals for you, now just do basic addition and subtraction

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Thanks!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

I got C. Now could you explain 4 and 5? After that I think I might understand @dtan5457 I just didn't understand the math lesson and have no clue how to do the homework XD

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

It's not C lol

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

You can't subtract the inside of the radicals, just the outside numbers

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

oh ok

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Then B? @dtan5457

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

yea. as for the other 2 questions ask it on a new one, i have to go..or bump this question sorry

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

ok
