Question 585555: I'm taking Geometry, but never learned how to simplify square roots. I can do the simple ones such as √24, but more comlicated ones such as 3√27, I cannot. So, for 3√27, I broke 27 into 9 x 3, and then the 9 into 3 x 3, but I don't even know if that's right or where to go from there. Sorry if that was confusing. I'm asking how 3√27 is simplified. That's it. Thank you, very much

Question 586965: The formula for the volume of a sphere is V=4/3πr^3. Find the radius of a sphere with each volume.
1. 10 in^3
2. 20 ft^3
3. 0.45 cm^3
4. 0.002 mm^3
I tried doing the problems like this: 10/4/3π; it's not the right way, but I don't know how. It has to be answered as a radical expression. How do I do that?

Question 588089: Problem: Find the inverse of .
I've fought the good fight, working on this on and off for two weeks.
Status:
For x^2 + x^1/2 = y, the equivalent is x = x^4 - 2x^2y + y^4. I cannot figure out what algebraic manipulative trick(s) to use to separate x, and render it as ONE X term in terms of y. [x = f(y)] Do you have a bag of such applicable tricks?
Since I can't manage that, here's another approach:
x^1/2 = y - x^2 and -(x^1/2) = X^2 - y.
While x^1/2 is not = -(x^1/2), (x^1/2)^2 = x and [-(x^1/2)]^2 = x.
Therefore: x = (y - x^2)^2 and x = (x^2-y)^2.
Now take the square root of each of the above:
x^1/2 = y - x^2 and x^1/2 = x^2 - y.
(Of course, the sq rts can also have a "-" sign.)
Therefore: y - x^2 = x^2 - y.
Is my logic correct so far?
(HOWEVER, in the expression above, let x = 1, and y>1.
If y = 4, 4 - 1 NOT = 1 - 4.)
In any event, if my logic holds up, it seems that I can write:
-2x^2 = -2y AND 2x^2 = 2y.
Each of these is a quadratic. So, it seems that I should be able to use
ax^2 + bx + c = (d)y
inputing known values of x and y [x = 1, y = 2; x = 4, y = 18], and come up with a specific quadratic equation of some form of:
x = -b/2a +/- [(sqrt b^2 + y - 4ac)/2a]
I'll leave it at that. Thanks so much. Cheers!
