Question

Rewrite this radicand as two factors, one of which is a perfect square.

Answer 1

Answer:

$2 \sqrt{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) rewrite 60 as it's prime factors.

$\sqrt{2 \times 2 \times 3 \times } 5$

2) group the smae prime factors into pairs.

$\sqrt{(2 \times 2)} \times 3 \times 5$

3) Rewrite each pair in exponent form.

$\sqrt{ {2}^{2} \times 3 \times 5 }$

4) use this role:

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} } = x$

$2 \sqrt{3 \times 5}$

5) Simplify.

$4 \sqrt{15}$

So, therefor, the answer is option 1.

Answer 2

The answer is a. 4x15=60 and 2^2=4 so we get 2x/sqrt(15)
