The reason they have to be simplified is that you cannot add radical unless the number under the radical is the same on all of them.
For example:
If you add √8 + √32 without simplifying, the best you could do is an estimate. But if you're required to put your answer in standard radical form this would be an issue.
So, you would have to simplify to combine:
√4√2 + √16√2
2√2 + 4√2
6√2

Answer:
2000
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.1 miles per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
The line goes through (0, 0), so Maria's speed is the ratio of miles to minutes:
(4.5 mi)/(45 min) = 0.1 mi/min
Answer:
80 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratios to solve
168 papers x papers
------------------ = -----------------
21 minutes 10 minutes
168*10 = x * 21
1680 = 21x
Divide each side by 21
1680/21 = 21x/21
80 = x

Answer: 1,393 meters tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 1710 meters for the initial amount, 0.05 for the rate of decrease, and 4 millennia for the time elapsed.
y
= a(1–r)t
y
= 1,710(1–0.05)4 Plug in values
y
= 1,710(0.95)4 Subtract
y
= 1,710(0.81450…) Simplify
y
= 1,392.80568… Multiply
Round to the nearest whole number.
1,392.80568… → 1,393
To the nearest whole number, the mountain will be 1,393 meters tall.
