Algebra.Com's Answer #64079 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You cannot combine the two square roots. The only thing you can do is factor out the GCF of 2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "but other than that, no further simplification can be done. So I would say that you are correct (it really depends on what your book or your teacher says). \n" ); document.write( " |
