Question 83555: Simplify (rationalize all denominators)
x^(3/4) + 5/[x^(1/4)] (you may assume x>0)
I think I should start by rewriting it as x^(3/4) + [5x^(3/4)] / x and then try to factor out x^(3/4). I can't remember how to do this correctly. I'd like to see the steps to solve the problem and the answer. Thanks.

Question 83596: Simplify (be sure to rationalize all denominators)
10. 3b[SQRT(27a^5b)] + 2a[SQRT(3a^3b^3)]
Here is how I wrote the steps.
1. 3b[SQRT(27a^5b)] + 2a[SQRT(3a^3b^3)]
2. 3b[3a^2SQRT(3ab)] + 2a[a^2b^2SQRT(3ab)]
3. [9a^2+2a^3b^2][SQRT(3ab)]
I am told that there is a small error in the second step. I was also told to notice in the second term,I have SQRT(3a^3b^3).If I remove the perfect square roots,I'll remove only ab, not a^2b^2. I thought that I had the correct answer and am wonder what the correct step and answer are. Thank you for any help you have!
