Question 1149708: Add or subtract, as indicated. Assume all variables represent positive real numbers.
A. +sqrt%28+32x+%29-sqrt%28+8x+%29+=
(Type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.)
B. The expression cannot be simplified.

Note: I tried applying the radical rule and using prime factorization to get 2sqrt%282%29+sqrt%28x%29 , but the answer is wrong.
