to cancel out square you have to take square root both sides \[\huge\rm \sqrt{m^2} = \pm { m}\]
OpenStudy (nuccioreggie):
@Nnesha. So B

you got that right
we can factor 60
sqrt{4 times 15}= 2sqrt{15}
but for this question B is right :-)
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
hint:
we have to take the square root of 60
please keep in mind that we have two values, one positive and the other one negative, since the index of the root is an even number
