simplify: sqrt (6/11)
a) sqrt (66/11)
b) 6 sqrt (11/11)
c) 6 sqrt (11)
d) 6
√(6/11)
= √6/√11
= √6/√11 * √11/√11
= (√66)/11
you might have mistyped choice a)
Goodmorning Reiny why can't I put the square root sign like you have it and I have a Dell computer. T
I have both a Mac and a PC , here is what I had posted a while back....
"If you are on a Mac...
hold down the "Option" key and press V, then release to get the √
There are a whole bunch of those shortcuts, like hold down the "Option" key, and press p to get π
on a PC , I hold down the Alt key, and while holding it down, pres 251 on the number pad, then release. You should get a √ sign
Again just like on a Mac, you can experiment with these on a PC to get different symbols
e.g. try "Alt" 241 to get ± "
If I recall, somebody responded that it did not work on a Dell.
Important point, use the number pad to type your numbers, not the numbers in the top row of the keyboard,
Try it
well reiny i did you said to do and it still didn't come out like yours i don't know what that might be :(
As I said, somebody else with a Dell had the same problem, so just use
Sqrt(3) or something obvious like that.
alrigth thanks again
To simplify the expression sqrt (6/11), we can first rationalize the denominator.
The square root of a fraction is the same as the square root of the numerator divided by the square root of the denominator.
So, sqrt (6/11) can be written as sqrt (6) / sqrt (11).
However, since sqrt (11) cannot be simplified any further, the expression cannot be simplified any further either.
Therefore, the answer is d) 6.
