<u>Answer:</u>

\frac { \sqrt { 13 } - \sqrt { 11 } } { \sqrt { 13 } - \sqrt { 11 } }

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following expression and we are to determine the expression that we need to multiply it with in order to rationalize the denominator:

\frac { 2 } { \sqrt { 13 } + \sqrt { 11 } }

To rationalize its denominator, we must multiply it with its conjugate.

For the denominator of the given expression, its conjugate would be \sqrt { 13 } - \sqrt { 11 }.

So to rationalize the expression, we would multiply it with:

\frac { \sqrt { 13 } - \sqrt { 11 } } { \sqrt { 13 } - \sqrt { 11 } }

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

You should multiply the expression by \frac{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}}

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

To rationalize any expression, you must multiply it by its conjugate. A conjugate is defined as a similar expression to the original one but with an opposite sign

<u>This means that:</u>

The conjugate of a + b would be a -  b

Now, the given expression is \frac{2}{\sqrt{13}+\sqrt{11}}

<u>Consider the denominator:</u>

From the above, we can conclude that the conjugate of \sqrt{13}+\sqrt{11} is \sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}

<u>And, remember that</u> we need to keep the value of the expression unchanged. This means that we must multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same value

<u>Therefore:</u>

You should multiply the expression by \frac{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}} in order to rationalize the denominator

Hope this helps :)

Can someone help me with this question please. I'll give the brainliest answer to whoever helps me.

Answer: \sqrt[5]{y}

I realize its probably not the largest readable font. If you are having trouble reading it, it is the square root of y; however, there is a tiny little 5 in the upper left corner to indicate a fifth root. So you would read it out as "the fifth root of y"

The rule I'm using is

x^{1/n} = \sqrt[n]{x}

and the more general rule we could use is

x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}

where m = 1. This rule helps convert from rational exponent form (aka fractional exponents) to radical form.

Every day you travel 4 3/4 miles each way to get to school. How many miles do you travel all together to get to and from school
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

47.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So, every morning, you travel 4.75 miles to get to school... and another 4.75 miles in the afternoon to return.

So, each day, you travel a total of 9.5 miles (4.75 + 4.75) to go school and back.

On a typical school week, you'll go to school 5 times... so you'll need to travel a total of 47.5 miles (5 * 9.5).

vodka [1.7K]

Answer: 24% of all employees attend night school.

Step-by-step explanation: If 40% of all employees are men and 30% of the men attend night school, we can multiply 0.40 by 0.30 to get the percentage of men who attend night school: 12% or 0.12. To find the number of women who attend night school, multiply 0.20 by 0.60(assuming percentage of men and women add up to 100%) to get 12%. Add 12% and 12% to get 24% of all employees attend night school.
