If 3/5 are action and 1/4 are comedy then:

(3/5)+(1/4) are action or comedy

To add/subtract fractions you need a common denominator...

(3/5)*(4/4)+(1/4)(5/5)

(12/20)+(5/20)

17/20

So 17/20 (85%) of his collection are action or comedy not 4/9...

Square root of 5 + square root of 3 the whole divided by sqaure root of 5 - square root of 3

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer is 4 + √15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to get rid of surds in the denorminator by multiplying it with the opposite sign :

$\frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} }$

$= \frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} } \times \frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }$

$= \frac{ {( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} ) }^{2} }{( \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} )( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3}) }$

$= \frac{ {( \sqrt{5} )}^{2} + 2( \sqrt{5} )( \sqrt{3}) + {( \sqrt{3}) }^{2} }{ {( \sqrt{5}) }^{2} - { (\sqrt{3} )}^{2} }$

$= \frac{5 + 2 \sqrt{15} + 3 }{5 - 3}$

$= \frac{8 + 2 \sqrt{15} }{2}$

$= 4 + \sqrt{15}$
