Algebra.Com's Answer #106830 by edjones(8007)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. (sqrt(x)+sqrt(y))^2=x+2sqrt(x)sqrt(y)+y so it only equals x+y when 2sqrt(x)sqrt(y)=0 \n" ); document.write( "2. it will only equal 0 when x and y both equal 0. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Ed \n" ); document.write( " |
