The trick is to exploit the difference of squares formula,

Set a = √8 and b = √6, so that a + b is the expression in the denominator. Multiply by its conjugate a - b:

Whatever you do to the denominator, you have to do to the numerator too. So

Expand the numerator:






So we have

But √12 = √(3•4) = 2√3, so

Answer:6x+1-3x-1
negative and negative= positive
3x+2
answer: 3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Alfonso will need to work 8 hours. What i did was multiply 8 by 6 which is 48 then subtracted 48 by 144 and got 96 then you divide that by 12 which is 8, and that is how many hours he will have to work.
