Question 344833: Hi, could you please help me with this problem:
+sqrt%288x%5E3%29-3sqrt%2850x%29+
I'm not positive if this is the correct way to type the problem but for clarification, the 3 is being multiplied by the square root of 50x, it is not an index
Thanks

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(To type it correctly, you need to put the 50x in parentheses after sqrt)
+sqrt%288x%5E3%29-3sqrt%2850x%29+

+sqrt%284%2A2%2Ax%5E2%2Ax%29-3sqrt%2825%2A2%2Ax%29+
