Multiplying...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Wait a moment please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[(4\sqrt{2m^2 + 4m})(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

how about to convert radical to an exponent form first :=))

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[4\sqrt{2m^2}(4\sqrt{3m^2})+4\sqrt{2m^2}(-3\sqrt{5m^2})+4m(4\sqrt{3m^2})+4m(-3\sqrt{5m^2})\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

If you have an easier way, please tell me.

Nnesha (nnesha):

ye i would to convert radical to an exponent form first \[\huge\rm \sqrt[\color{Red}{n}]{x^\color{blue}{m}}=x^\frac{\color{blue}{ m }}{ \color{ReD}{n} }\]index becomes denominator of fraction

Nnesha (nnesha):

like*

Nnesha (nnesha):

aww i see wait is it \[\large\rm (4\sqrt{2m^2} +\sqrt{ 4m})(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\] like this ?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

yeah

Nnesha (nnesha):

alright then. you can multiply the numbers under the square root like \[\large\rm 4\sqrt{2m^2}*4\sqrt{3m^2} \rightarrow 16 \sqrt{6m^4}\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

yes i got that

Nnesha (nnesha):

that's the easy i can see instead writing a*b just directly right ab

Nnesha (nnesha):

way*

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

so after i used foil i got: \[16\sqrt{6m^4} - 12\sqrt{10m^4} + 16m \sqrt{3m^2}-12m \sqrt{5m^2}\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmm isn't it\[\large\rm (4\sqrt{2m^2} +\color{Red}{\sqrt{ 4m}})(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\] so it should be sqrt{4m} times 4sqrt3m^2}

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[16\sqrt{6m^4} - 12\sqrt{10m^4} + \color{Red}{16}m \sqrt{3m^2}-12m \sqrt{5m^2}\] how did you get 16 here

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

no it's only 4m without the radical

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @calculusxy \[(4\sqrt{2m^2 + 4m})(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\] \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) THIS IS NOT CORRECT! I JUST NOTICED!

Nnesha (nnesha):

yea so that's why i asked is it like this \[\large\rm (4\sqrt{2m^2} +\sqrt{ 4m})(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[\large\rm (4\sqrt{2m^2} +4m)(4\sqrt{3m^2}-3\sqrt{5m^2})\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\rm 16\sqrt{6m^4} - 12\sqrt{10m^4} + \color{Red}{16}m \sqrt{3m^2}-12m \sqrt{5m^2}\] this is correct :=)

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[16\sqrt{6m^4} - 12\sqrt{10m^4} + 16m \sqrt{3m^2}-12m \sqrt{5m^2}\] \[16m^2\sqrt{6} - 12m^2\sqrt{10} +16m^2\sqrt{3}-12m^2\sqrt{5}\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[16\sqrt{6m^4} - 12\sqrt{10m^4} + 16m \sqrt{3m^2}-12m \sqrt{5m^2}\] \[16m^2\sqrt{6} - 12m^2\sqrt{10} +16m^2\sqrt{3}-12m^2\sqrt{5}\] \[16\sqrt{6}-12\sqrt{10}+16\sqrt{3}-12\sqrt{5}\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[16\sqrt{6}-12\sqrt{10}+16\sqrt{3}-12\sqrt{5}\] would that be correct?

Nnesha (nnesha):

what happened to m^2? remember we should keep the GCF outside the parentheses ab+ac= a(b+C)

Nnesha (nnesha):

and what about common number ?? :=))

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

well the answer key says that that is the correct answer

Nnesha (nnesha):

well there is GCF(greatest common factor ) you took out the m^2 from each term \[m^2(16\sqrt{6}-12\sqrt{10}+16\sqrt{3}-12\sqrt{5})\] and 4 is also the common factor

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

ok thanks :)

Nnesha (nnesha):

np :=))
