Question

Perform the operation and/or simplify each of the following. Assume all variables represent positive real numbers. 3√xy - 8√xy

Accepted Answer

Hello, today we're gonna be evaluating the given expression. So what we are given is nine times the square root of kh minus 11 times the square root of kh. Now one thing to note here is that both of the terms have the common term, the square root of kh. So we can go ahead and combine this into a single term by taking the difference of the leading coefficients. So combining these two values together is going to give us nine minus 11 times the square root of Kh and nine minus 11 is going to simplify to give us negative two. So what we are left with is negative two times the square root of kh. And this is going to be the simplified version of the given expression. And with that being said, the overall solution is going to be D. So I hope this video helps you in understanding how to approach this problem. And I'll go ahead and see you all in the next video.
