Question

What is the simplified form of the following expression? 2(^4 sqrt 16x)- 2(^4sqrt2y)+3(^4sqrt81x)-4(^4sqrt 32y) Assume x>0 and y>0

Answer 1

For this case we have the following expression:
 2 (^ 4 sqrt 16x) - 2 (^ 4sqrt2y) +3 (^ 4sqrt81x) -4 (^ 4sqrt 32y)
 Rewriting we have:
 2 (^ 4 sqrt 2 ^ 4x) - 2 (^ 4sqrt2y) +3 (^ 4sqrt3 ^ 4x) -4 (^ 4sqrt 2 ^ 4 * 2y)
 Then by root properties we have:
 2 * 2 (^ 4 sqrt x) - 2 (^ 4sqrt2y) + 3 * 3 (^ 4sqrt x) -4 * 2 (^ 4sqrt 2y)
 Rewriting:
 4 (^ 4 sqrt x) - 2 (^ 4sqrt2y) + 9 (^ 4sqrt x) - 8 (^ 4sqrt 2y)
 Adding similar terms:
 13 (^ 4 sqrt x) - 10 (^ 4sqrt2y)
 Answer:
 13 (^ 4 sqrt x) - 10 (^ 4sqrt2y)
