Answer:

Hi Friend!

The Correct Answer is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(-1/5, 7/10) = 10

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

Which choice is equivalent to the quotient shown here when x is greater than or equal to 0?

Dima020 [189]

Answer: OPTION C

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

$\sqrt[n]{a^n}=a$

And the Product of powers property establishes that:

$a^m*a^n=a^{(mn)}$

Rewrite the expression:

$\frac{\sqrt{18x} }{\sqrt{32} }$

Descompose 18 and 32 into their prime factors:

$18=2*3*3=2*3^2\\32=2*2*2*2*2=2^5=2^4*2$

Substitute into the expression, then:

$\frac{\sqrt{(2*3^2)x} }{\sqrt{2^4*2} }$

Finally,simplifying, you get:

$\frac{3\sqrt{(2)x} }{2^2\sqrt{2} }=\frac{3\sqrt{2x}}{4\sqrt{2}}=\frac{(3)(\sqrt{x})(\sqrt{2})}{(4)(\sqrt{2})}= \frac{3\sqrt{x}}{4}$
