Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

Multiply the following radical expression: \$ 3\sqrt(4x^2) times \sqrt(16x^2)\$.

2

Step

Given expression

\$ 3\sqrt(4x^2) times \sqrt(16x^2)\$

3

Step

Simplify inside the square roots:

\$ \sqrt(4x^2) = \sqrt(4) times \sqrt(x^2)\$ = 2x

\$ \sqrt(16x^2) = \sqrt(16) times \sqrt(x^2)\$ = 4x

4

Step

Substitute the simplified forms back into the expression:

\$3 \times 2x \times 4x\$

5

Step

Multiply the constants and the variables:

\$3 \times 2 \times 4 \times x \times x = 24x^2\$

6

Step

Therefore, the simplified expression is \$24x^2\$.

7

Choice.A

This option is incorrect, it is much lower than \$24x^2\$

\$2x^2\$

8

Choice.B

This option is correct, it matches our simplified expression \$24x^2\$

\$24x^2\$

9

Choice.C

This option is incorrect, this is not equal to \$24x^2\$

\$22x^2\$

10

Choice.D

This option is incorrect, this option does not match our simplified expression

\$12x^2\$

11

Answer

Option

B
