Helps if you know the factors of 128 first off.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16 and 8

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay now what

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

so it's the sqrt of 64*2*x^2*x^5*y^2 Agree?

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

sry x^3 not x^5

OpenStudy (dannyo19):

because x^2 * x^3 is x^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so \[\sqrt{64*2*x^2*x^3*y^2}\]
