Radicals Help

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

What do you need help with?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

A) (√96/√6)-(√54/√6) √(96/6)-√(54/6) √16-√9= 4-3=1

OpenStudy (superfly123):

@isaidavila dont we factor ou 96 then divide by 6 from there?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Is another way to do it

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

But do you understan D what I did?

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

Excellent, check out how I did the problem. we want to simplify the radicals as much as possible by finding a number that we can take the square root of and get an integer i.e. whole number. \[\frac{ \sqrt{96}-\sqrt{54} }{ \sqrt{6} } \] we must simplify this right? check this out \[\frac{ \sqrt{16}*\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{9}*\sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{6} }\] \[\frac{ 4\sqrt{6}-3\sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{6} } = \frac{ \sqrt{6}(4-3) }{ \sqrt{6} } = 1\]

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

if you're looking for another way to do it @SuperFly123

OpenStudy (superfly123):

Thanks for that prob, now 22 im stuck at

OpenStudy (superfly123):

@jhonyy9

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so for what you wan help from these ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

from 22 and down

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

ok do you know how multiplie radicals ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

yes

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

there are squarroot multiplied squarroot - so how will be ? for example sqrt(a) *sqrt(b) = ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

You multiply the radicands then simpify

OpenStudy (superfly123):

for the first answer it should be 4 radical 2 minus 3 not 1

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

do you think it about your exercise 22 - first exercise ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

for exercise 21 shouldn't the answer be 4 radical 2 minus 3

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

you have said me exercise 22 - no ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

i did but im asking you for 21 also

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sqrt96 - sqrt54 --------------- = ---------------- sqrt6 how you solve it ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

Sorry the answer to 21 is correct i messed up , okay anyway exercise 22

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sqrt96 = sqrt(6*16) = 4sqrt6 sqrt54 = sqrt(9*6) = 3sqrt6 4sqrt6 -3sqrt6 sqrt6*(4-3) -------------- = ----------- = (4-3) = 1 sqrt6 sqrt6 have you got it same ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

Sorry the answer to 21 is correct i messed up , okay anyway exercise 22

OpenStudy (superfly123):

yes

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

are you here please ?

OpenStudy (superfly123):

I have all the answers thank you for your time

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

ok was my pleasure good luck
