Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify radicals that are not perfect squares, we need a new method.
Example: [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex]
27 is not a perfect square square the square root cannot be used.
[tex]\sqrt{27} = 5.19615242271[/tex]
To solve this, we need to break down the radical into simpler parts.
[tex]\sqrt{27} = \sqrt{3} * \sqrt{9}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{9} = 3[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] cannot be simplified
[tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex] = 3[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
Good luck on your test!
I'm always happy to help :)
