Yes.

So 3*sqrt(2) + 5*sqrt(2) = 8*sqrt(2)

But you may need to simplify terms

eg 3*sqrt(2) + 5*sqrt(8) = 3*sqrt(2) + 10*sqrt(2) = 13*sqrt(2)

What is Combining laws of exponents?

Combining laws of exponents refers to the rules that govern the manipulation of expressions involving powers. Key laws include the product of powers (adding exponents when multiplying like bases), the quotient of powers (subtracting exponents when dividing like bases), and the power of a power (multiplying exponents when raising a power to another power). These rules help simplify expressions and solve equations involving exponents efficiently. Understanding these laws is essential for working with algebraic expressions in mathematics.
