.  \sqrt{20}+ \sqrt{24} - \sqrt{54}.  The idea is to simplify the radicand into a perfect square or a multiplication of 2 numbers and 1 of those is a perfect square.  Let's rewrite our simplified radicands: \sqrt{4*5} + \sqrt{4*6}- \sqrt{9*6}.  In the first two, 4 is the perfect square and will be pulled out as a 2, leaving whatever is left under the radical sign, and in the third one, 9 is the perfect square that will be pulled out as a 3.  2 \sqrt{5} +2 \sqrt{6} -3 \sqrt{6}.  The rule for adding and subtracting radicands is that a. the index has to be the same (ours are all square roots, so the indexes are all 2), and b. the radicands have to be like in order to combine them.  Our square root of 6 is in 2 of those, so those can be combined, but not the square root of 5.  Combining like terms now we have 2 \sqrt{5} -1 \sqrt{6}

\sqrt{20} =  \sqrt{4}  \sqrt{5}  = 2 \sqrt{5}
\sqrt{24} =  \sqrt{4} \sqrt{6} = 2 \sqrt{6}
\sqrt{54} =  \sqrt{9} \sqrt{6} = 3 \sqrt{6}

Because you can only add and subtract radicals with the same radicand,
you get 2\sqrt{5} -  \sqrt{6}
that is the simplified answer but if you want it in decimals, 2.022 is what you get.

) Tara earns twice as much per hour as Kayte.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Austin's hourly wage is $8.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

Tara's hourly wage is x.

Kayte's hourly wage is y.

Austin's hourly wage is z.

Tara earns twice as much per hour as Kayte.

This means that x = 2y

Kayte earns $3 more per hour than Austin.

This means that y = z + 3

As a group, they earn $41 per hour.

This means that x + y + z = 41

What is Austin's hourly wage?​

This is z.

x + y + z = 41

y = z + 3 and x = 2y, so x = 2(z + 3) = 2z + 6

x + y + z = 41

2z + 6 + z + 3 + z = 41

4z + 9 = 41

4z = 32

z = \frac{32}{4}

z = 8

Austin's hourly wage is $8.
