Lesson Steps

Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

simplify the following:
A. \$7\sqrt26 + 11\sqrt26\$
B. \$\sqrt18\$

2

Step

To simplify the given expressions:

  1. \$7\sqrt26 + 11\sqrt26\$

3

Step

First, notice that both terms have the same radical \$\sqrt 26\$. We can combine them:

\$7\sqrt26 + 11\sqrt26\$

\$(7 + 11)\sqrt 26\$

\$18\sqrt 26\$

4

Step

To simplify the given expressions:

B.\$\sqrt18\$

5

Step

To simplify \$\sqrt18\$, we need to factorize the number under the square root:

\$18 = 9 \times 2 = 3^2 \times 2\$

6

Step

So, we can rewrite \$\sqrt18\$ as:

\$\sqrt18\$ = \$\sqrt(3^2 \times 2)\$ = \$3\sqrt2\$

7

Step

Therefore, the correct answers are \$18\sqrt26\$ and \$3\sqrt2\$.

8

Choice.A

The first part doesn’t match the coefficient in the simplified expression, and the second part doesn’t match the radical term.So, Option A doesn’t match

\$18\sqrt35\$ and \$\sqrt3\$

9

Choice.B

Both parts match exactly with the simplified expression. Therefore, Option B is the correct one

\$18\sqrt26\$ and \$3\sqrt2\$

10

Choice.C

Option C doesn’t align because the numerical coefficient in the first part and the radical term in the second part don’t correspond to those in the simplified expression

\$26\sqrt62\$ and \$5\sqrt3\$

11

Choice.D

Neither the first nor the second part matches the simplified expression. So, Option D doesn’t match

\$18\sqrt18\$ and \$3\sqrt3\$

12

Answer

Option

B
