Answer: 
This is the same as saying 18*sqrt(2) or you could say 18√2
============================================================
Explanation:
We'll be using this square root rule: 
So we could have this as our steps:

Therefore, 
The basic idea is to first combine the roots using that rule. From there, we factor the radicand such that we pull out the largest perfect square factor. This will allow us to break the root apart and fully simplify it.
Answer:
1. Going to the close store is cheaper.
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference in the prices of chicken is 3.19 -2.89 = 0.30 per pound, so for 5 pounds of chicken, the far store offers a price that totals 5×$0.30 = $1.50 less.
The difference in travel distances is 8.4 -2.4 = 6 miles, so the total round-trip distance difference is 12 miles. The cost of gas is ...
($3.81 /gal)/(23 mi/gal) = $0.1656 /mi
so the cost of gas for the 12-mile longer trip would be
12×$0.1656 ≈ $1.99
Traveling to the far store, you would spend $1.99 more on gas to save $1.50 on the price of chicken. Going to the close store is cheaper.
Answer:
Not a function
Since x= produces y- -1 and y=-4, the relation (3,-1),(2,5),(4,-6),(3,4),(5,-8) is not a function.
I think the answer is $166,742.24
