Which statement is true about the product square root of 2(3square root of 2 + square root of 18)?
It is rational and equal to 12.
It is rational and equal to 18.
It is irrational and equal to 6 + 2 square root of 2.
It is irrational and equal to 3 + square root of 8.
Solution:
Given:
Product square root of 2(3square root of 2 + square root of 18)
By mathematically representing it as:
√2 × (3√2 + √18)
The distributive property states that any expression with three numbers A, B, and C, given in form A (B + C) then it is resolved as:
A × (B + C) = AB + AC or A (B - C) = AB - AC.
This means operand A is distributed among the other two operands.
Using the distributive property,
= (3 × 2) + (√2 × √18)
So we get,
= 6 + √36
We know that √36 = 6
= 6 + 6
= 12
Therefore, the statement which is true is that it is rational and equal to 12.
Which statement is true about the product square root of 2(3square root of 2 + square root of 18)?
Summary:
The statement which is true about the product square root of 2(3square root of 2 + square root of 18) is rational and equal to 12.
