Question 554557: Need help solving the following problem.
y/srt7 + sqrt3
If we can't have radicals in the denominator, we need to rationalize the denominator to multiplying the fraction.
sqrt7 - sqrt3/sqrt7 - sqrt3
(y/sqrt7 + sqrt3)(sqrt7 - sqrt 3/sqrt7 - sqrt3) We would need to multiply each term

Need help solving the following problem.
y/(srt7 + sqrt3)
---
Multiply numerator and denominator by sqrt(7)-sqrt(3) to get:
---
[y[sqrt(7)-sqrt(3)]/[7-3]
---
= (y/4)[sqrt(7)+sqrt(3)]
