It looks like you want to expand the expression ...

Use the distributive property and rules of exponents.

_____
The relevant rules of exponents are ...
√a = a^(1/2)
1/a = a^-1
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
Answer: 0.1 or 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:






Cross, cancel common factor


Let the two numbers be x and y, then
x - y = 48 . . . (1)
x + y = 60 . . . (2)
(1) - (2) => -2y = -12 => y = -12/-2 = 6
From (1), x - 6 = 48 => x = 48 + 6 = 54
Therefore, the two numbers are 54 and 6.
