How do you rationalize the denominator in this expression 2 divided by the square root of 3 plus the square root of 2?
Multiply everything by the square root of 3 minus the square root of 2 and then times that by 100 - 72 and divide that by 5
Simplify the expression 2 square root 3 multiply square root 12?
hmm... okay, if I understand you correctly, 2 times the square root of 3 times the square root of 12? = 2(1.73)(3.46) = 11.9716. If you aren't using the approximations, then just simplifying is... [sorry, I can't do the square root sign on the computer...] 2(square root of 3)(square root of 12) = 2(square root of 3)(square root of 4*3) = 4(square root of 3)(square root of 3) = 4(3) = 12!!! HOPE I HELPED!! :-)
Can 2 divided by 2 square root 3 be simplified?
Yes, the expression 2 divided by 2 square root 3 can be simplified. To simplify this expression, we need to rationalize the denominator. Multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of the denominator (2 square root 3), we get (2 * 2 square root 3) / (2 * 2 square root 3 * 2 square root 3). This simplifies to 4 square root 3 / 12, which further simplifies to square root 3 / 3.
Why does each square root have 2 solutions?
The answer to square root of 9 for example, is 3 and -3... When you multiply 3 times -3 it comes out to be 9
What is the process of eliminating a radical in the denominator of a fraction?
It is called rationalizing the denominator, and it is done by multiplying numerator and denominator by appropriate numbers. Note that if you do that, you will usually end up with radicals in the numerator. Examples: 1 / (square root of 2): Multiply numerator and denominator by the square root of 2. 1 / (square root of 2 + square root of 3): Multiply numerator and denominator by (square root of 2 - square root of 3).
