Jake runs 7sqrt(6) miles on Monday and 5sqrt(6) miles on Tuesday. What is the difference in miles run each day? (1 point)
O 2sqrt(12)
O 4sqrt(6)
O 4sqrt(12)
O 2sqrt(6)
To find the difference in miles run each day, we need to subtract the number of miles run on Tuesday from the number of miles run on Monday.
7sqrt(6) - 5sqrt(6) = 2sqrt(6)
So the difference in miles run each day is 2sqrt(6).
Therefore, the answer is O 2sqrt(6).
To find the difference in miles run each day, we need to subtract the number of miles run on Tuesday from the number of miles run on Monday.
Given that Jake runs 7sqrt(6) miles on Monday and 5sqrt(6) miles on Tuesday, we can now calculate the difference as:
(7sqrt(6)) - (5sqrt(6))
Using the fact that square root of 6 multiplied by square root of 6 is equal to 6, we can simplify the equation:
7sqrt(6) - 5sqrt(6) = 2sqrt(6)
Therefore, the difference in miles run each day is 2sqrt(6), so the correct answer is:
O 2sqrt(6)
To find the difference in miles run each day, we need to subtract the number of miles run on Tuesday from the number of miles run on Monday.
Given that Jake runs 7√6 miles on Monday and 5√6 miles on Tuesday, the difference is:
7√6 - 5√6
To subtract these values, we can combine the like terms:
(7 - 5)√6
Which simplifies to:
2√6
Therefore, the difference in miles run each day is 2√6.
So, the correct answer is: O 2√6.
