Subtract 8√23-√23
= 8√23 - √23
Since both terms have the same radical (√23), we can subtract them:
= (8 - 1)√23
= 7√23
Therefore, 8√23 - √23 = 7√23.
To subtract 8√23 - √23, we combine like terms. Since both terms have the same radicand (√23), we can simplifying by factoring it out.
Step 1: Rewrite the expression:
8√23 - √23 = (8 - 1)√23
Step 2: Simplify:
(8 - 1)√23 = 7√23
So, the simplified result is 7√23.
To subtract 8√23 from √23, we can treat √23 as a common factor and rewrite the expression as (√23 - 8√23).
(√23 - 8√23) simplifies to -7√23.
So, subtracting 8√23 from √23 will result in -7√23.
