Question 175540: Here is another application I am struggling with. I submitted it earlier but my computer shut down and I am unsure if it went through or not. Here it is again.
2. The equation [D=1.2 square root of h] gives the distance, D, in miles that a person can see to the horizon from a height, h, in feet.
a. Solve this equation for h.
b. Long’s Peak in the Rocky Mountain National Park, is 14,255 feet in elevation. How far can you see to the horizon from the top of Long’s Peak? Can you see Cheyenne, Wyoming (about 89 miles away)?

Question 176126: I need to simplify a square root that contains a fraction. The numerator is itself a fraction. It is one plus the square root of 2 over just 2. That is, the numerator of the fraction within the radical is first 1, then the latter 1 is plus the square root of 2 with a denominator of 2 . Then the denominator of the entire radical is 2. I know that this first fractional radical can be simplified to a radical with the numerator of 2 plus the square root of 2 with a denominator of 4. But I do not know the process whereby the first radical is simplified to the next radical. I would appreciate very much an explanation about how this first radical is simplified to the second radical.
