Vocaloid:
you would divide both sides by 13 to get 52/13 = ?
nolegirl24:
4
Vocaloid:
good so sqrt(52) = sqrt(4*13) = 2sqrt(13)
Vocaloid:
now let's do the same thing with 117
117 = __ * 3
nolegirl24:
39

Sorry 9 not 39
Vocaloid:
good so sqrt(117) = sqrt(9*13) = 3(sqrt13)
so now they're all in terms of sqrt(13) we just add/subtract like terms
Vocaloid:
square root of 52. − the square root of 13. + the square root of 117.
2sqrt(13) - sqrt(13) + 3sqrt(13) = 4(sqrt13) = answer A
