No need for calculus... For starters, remember that the product of square roots is equal to the square root of the product. So
. Go from here.
Re: Simplify!!! Square Roots and Variables. =/
Ok from that I got sqrt(20x^6 y^9).
Then I think I remember from school we used to factor out the perect squares..? So like sqrt(20*x^4*x^2*y^9)... So lost! Am I on the right track here? I feel like I'm confusing another process with this one.
Re: Simplify!!! Square Roots and Variables. =/
Got it: 2x^3 y^4 sqrt(5y)
If anyone wants to check that for me, I'll appreciate it!
