a student's work to distribute and simplify a radical is shown below. Select the statement which best applies to the sample math

ematical work. given (-5√20+√3)*(2+√3), i first distribute to get the expression -10√20-5√60+2√3+√9, which i can simplify to -40√5-20√15+2√3+3 for an answer. a. the student did not properly distribute the radicals b. the student overlooked combining one or more of the radical terms c. the student did not properly simplify all radicals d. the work shown above is correct

Answer:

C) The student did not properly simplify all radicals.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression in the question:

(-5\sqrt{20}+\sqrt{3})(2+\sqrt{3})

We have to apply the distributive property.

Distributive Property:

  • The distributive property helps multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.
  • (a+b)(c+d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

Applying the distributive property:

(-5\sqrt{20}+\sqrt{3})(2+\sqrt{3})\\(-5\sqrt{20})(2) + (-5\sqrt{20})(\sqrt3) + (\sqrt3)(2) + (\sqrt3)(\sqrt3)\\-10\sqrt{20}-5\sqrt{60}+2\sqrt3 +\sqrt9

This can be further simplified as:

-10\sqrt{20}-5\sqrt{60}+2\sqrt3+\sqrt9\\-20\sqrt{5}-10\sqrt{15}+2\sqrt3+3

The student simplified the radical as:

-40\sqrt{20}-20\sqrt{60}+2\sqrt3+\sqrt3

The student did a mistake in simplifying the radical. He did not solve the square roots properly.

C) The student did not properly simplify all radicals.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. So the third angle in the triangle is

90+32+a=180

a+122=180

a=58

Now angle x is adjacent to angle a so their sum must equal 180 degrees so

x+58=180

x=122 degrees

The length of the sides of a square is 10 meters. Find the length of the diagonals of the square
BaLLatris [955]

。☆✼★ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  ☾  

Use Pythagoras' theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Sub the values in:

10^2 + 10^2 = c^2

200 = c^2

Square root to find the answer:

c = 14.14

Parentheses, Exponent, Multiply, Division, Addition, Subtraction is your order (aka PEMDAS). Multiply 9x10 which gives you 90, then add -2 (or subtract 2) and your answer is 88.
