Answer:

a = - 3 and b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{8-\sqrt{18} }{\sqrt{2} }

Simplify \sqrt{18}

= \sqrt{9(2)} = \sqrt{9} × \sqrt{2} = 3\sqrt{2}

Thus expression can be written as

\frac{8-3\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{2} }

Multiply numerator/denominator by \sqrt{2}

noting that \sqrt{2} × \sqrt{2} = 2

= \frac{\sqrt{2}(8-3\sqrt{2})  }{\sqrt{2}(\sqrt{2})  }

= \frac{8\sqrt{2}-6 }{2}

Dividing each term on the numerator by 2

= 4\sqrt{2} - 3

= - 3 + 4\sqrt{2}

with a = - 3 and b = 4

Answer:

a = -3, b = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

(8 - √18) / √2

= (8 - 3√2) √2

= 8/√2  - 3

=  8√2 / 2 - 3

= -3 + 4√2

So  a + b√2 = -3 + 4√2

Comparing coefficients we have:

a = -3 and b = 4 (answer).
