Solve for X

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

\[\frac{ x }{ 2\sqrt{3} }=2\]

rvc (rvc):

cross multiply :)

rvc (rvc):

What do you get after cross multiplying ?

rvc (rvc):

example \[\frac{ x }{ 6\sqrt{3} } = 15 \\ \\ x= 6\sqrt{3}~ X~ 15\]

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

What's up mind blaster?

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

how would i solve for x?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

rvc has it, \[x = 6\sqrt{5} \times 15\] I think that big X might have confused you, it's just being multiplied.

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Remember \[a \sqrt{b} \times c \implies (c \times a) \sqrt{b}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

hmm

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[6\sqrt{3} \times 15 \implies (6 \times 15) \sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

\[2\times 2\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

is it

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

\[\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

4

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Mhm?

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

\[4\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

is that the answer?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[90\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

how?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

It cannot be simplified.

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

\[2 \times 2\sqrt{3} = 90\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

your telling me this is it?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

What?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Oooh

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

I was looking at rvc's example

rvc (rvc):

its 4\(\sqrt3\) = 4 X 1.732

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Haha, I thought that was the question!

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Yes, you're right mindblaster :)

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

oh1! it all makes sense now! thank you all <3

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[4\sqrt{3}\] is right haha, sorry about that!

OpenStudy (mindblast3r):

its okay :D

rvc (rvc):

yep u can further simplify \(\sqrt3\)=1.732
