Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right with hypotenuse QR

Use Pythagoras' identity to solve for QR

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is

QR² = 8² + (8 $\sqrt{3}$ )²

= 64 + 192

= 256 ( take the square root of both sides )

QR = $\sqrt{256}$ = 16

which of the following is equivalent to 3 sqrt 32x^3y^6 / 3 sqrt 2x^9y^2 where x is greater than or equal to 0 and y is greater

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{16y^4}}{x^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are missing; However, I'll simplify the given expression.

Given

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{32x^3y^6}}{\sqrt[3]{2x^9y^2} }$

Required

Write Equivalent Expression

To solve this expression, we'll make use of laws of indices throughout.

From laws of indices $\sqrt[n]{a} = a^{\frac{1}{n}}$

So,

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{32x^3y^6}}{\sqrt[3]{2x^9y^2} }$ gives

$\frac{(32x^3y^6)^{\frac{1}{3}}}{(2x^9y^2)^\frac{1}{3}}$

Also from laws of indices

$(ab)^n = a^nb^n$

So, the above expression can be further simplified to

$\frac{(32^\frac{1}{3}x^{3*\frac{1}{3}}y^{6*\frac{1}{3}})}{(2^\frac{1}{3}x^{9*\frac{1}{3}}y^{2*\frac{1}{3}})}$

Multiply the exponents gives

$\frac{(32^\frac{1}{3}x*y^{2})}{(2^\frac{1}{3}x^{3}*y^{\frac{2}{3}})}$

Substitute $2^5$ for 32

$\frac{(2^{5*\frac{1}{3}}x*y^{2})}{(2^\frac{1}{3}x^{3}*y^{\frac{2}{3}})}$

$\frac{(2^{\frac{5}{3}}x*y^{2})}{(2^\frac{1}{3}x^{3}*y^{\frac{2}{3}})}$

From laws of indices

$\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$

This law can be applied to the expression above;

$\frac{(2^{\frac{5}{3}}x*y^{2})}{(2^\frac{1}{3}x^{3}*y^{\frac{2}{3}})}$ becomes

$2^{\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}}x^{1-3}*y^{2-\frac{2}{3}}$

Solve exponents

$2^{\frac{5-1}{3}}*x^{-2}*y^{\frac{6-2}{3}}$

$2^{\frac{4}{3}}*x^{-2}*y^{\frac{4}{3}}$

From laws of indices,

$a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}$ ; So,

$2^{\frac{4}{3}}*x^{-2}*y^{\frac{4}{3}}$ gives

$\frac{2^{\frac{4}{3}}*y^{\frac{4}{3}}}{x^2}$

The expression at the numerator can be combined to give

$\frac{(2y)^{\frac{4}{3}}}{x^2}$

Lastly, From laws of indices,

$a^{\frac{m}{n} = \sqrt[n]{a^m}$ ; So,

$\frac{(2y)^{\frac{4}{3}}}{x^2}$ becomes

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{(2y)}^{4}}{x^2}$

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{16y^4}}{x^2}$

Hence,

$\frac{\sqrt[3]{32x^3y^6}}{\sqrt[3]{2x^9y^2} }$ is equivalent to $\frac{\sqrt[3]{16y^4}}{x^2}$
