Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = 8 x^4 y \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3}[/tex] --- the complete expression
Required
The equivalent expression
We have:
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3}[/tex]
Expand
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = \sqrt{128* x^8 * y^3}[/tex]
Further expand
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = \sqrt{64 * 2* x^8 * y^2 * y}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = \sqrt{64 * x^8 * y^2* 2 * y}[/tex]
Split
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = \sqrt{64 * x^8 * y^2} * \sqrt{2 * y}[/tex]
Express as:
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = (64 * x^8 * y^2)^\frac{1}{2} * \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
Remove bracket
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = (64)^\frac{1}{2} * (x^8)^\frac{1}{2} * (y^2)^\frac{1}{2} * \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = 8 * x^\frac{8}{2} * y^\frac{2}{2} * \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = 8 * x^4 * y * \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{128x^8y^3} = 8 x^4 y \sqrt{2y}[/tex]
