OpenStudy (photon336):

so look at the denominator \[(1-\sqrt{5})\]

OpenStudy (photon336):

when they mean rationalize you multiply both the numerator and denominator by the conjugate

OpenStudy (photon336):

know what that means?

OpenStudy (snowflakelove15):

Yes I do

OpenStudy (photon336):

so what do you think the next step should be?

OpenStudy (photon336):

\[\frac{ 7 }{ 1-\sqrt{5} }*\frac{ 1+\sqrt{5} }{ 1+\sqrt{5} }\] so you take the sign see that 1+sqrt(5)? switch that to a minus sign 1-sqrt5
