write in terms of i simplify your answer as much as possible [\sqrt;[\neg;[80]]]
Can you rewrite [\sqrt;[\neg;[80]]] I can't read it
\[\sqrt{-80 }\] this?
yes
@darkknight are you doing this one or me?
idk, u can if u want to
well i need help with another one andi just did this one, so he's all yours :)
ok
wait a few min
ok
first you want to rewrite this remember that \ What would you get if you rewrite this in terms of i
actually there is only 1 step lol
ok
so basically you can rewrite that as 80i, because sqrt(-80) = 80i. If you take out the sqrt(-1) which equals i
ok so first \[\sqrt{-80}= \sqrt{-1}*\sqrt{80}\] the sqrt of -1 is equal to i so we have \[i \sqrt{80}\] the sqrt of 80 can be broken down into \[\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{5}=4\sqrt{5}\] now since 4 AND i are outside the radical you combine them. after combining them, what are we left with?
4i
ok and what about the stuff under the radical?
u leave it?
good point, we can simplify the thing I got more. Didn't read the instructions
lol
so would i leave it?
the stuff under the radical, yes, because the sqrt of 5 can not be simplified any further
ok
so how do you write your final answer?
thx, i already did that part lol
ok. yw. be sure to close the post
