Thread: Simplifying Radical Expression (CtP: Check the Proof)

Can you check to see if I took the proper steps to get the right answer?


Simplify:


The answer is:


My steps:
1. Simplify the numerator so it becomes:


2. Simplify the denominator so it becomes:


3. It's improper to have a radical in the denominator so multiply the denominator and number by the square root of y would simplify that:


Equals:

Looks good to me, well done.

Better check that LaTeX.
