Simplify \[3\sqrt{10}+7\sqrt{15}-6\sqrt{10}-4\sqrt{15}\] A. \[3\sqrt{10}-3\sqrt{15}\] B. \[3\sqrt{15}-3\sqrt{10}\] C. \[3\sqrt{30}-3\sqrt{20}\] D. \[3\sqrt{20}-3\sqrt{30}\]

OpenStudy (perl):

first collect like terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meaning? sorry this whole equation is still new to me

OpenStudy (perl):

$$\Large { 3\sqrt{10}+7\sqrt{15}-6\sqrt{10}-4\sqrt{15} \\= 7\sqrt{15}-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{10}-6\sqrt{10} \\ =(7-4)\sqrt{15}+(3-6) \sqrt{10} \\= 3\sqrt{15}+(-3) \sqrt{10} } $$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what?

OpenStudy (perl):

$$\Large { 3\sqrt{10}+7\sqrt{15}-6\sqrt{10}-4\sqrt{15} \\= 7\sqrt{15}-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{10}-6\sqrt{10} \\ =(7-4)\sqrt{15}+(3-6) \sqrt{10} \\= 3\sqrt{15}+(-3) \sqrt{10} \\= 3\sqrt{15}-3 \sqrt{10} } $$

OpenStudy (perl):

that cant be simplified further

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can this equation be simplified? \[5\sqrt{11}-12\sqrt{11-2\sqrt{11}}\] A. \[-33\sqrt{9}\] B. \[-11\sqrt{9}\] C. \[-9\sqrt{11}\] D. \[-9\sqrt{33}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@perl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

* the equation is \[5\sqrt{11}-12\sqrt{11}-2\sqrt{11}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@texaschic101 @iGreen @confluxepic ^ help?

OpenStudy (igreen):
