Answer:
Just like combining like terms with the same variables, you combine like
radicals with the same number under the radical signs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Example:
3x + 2x
= 5x {combined like terms}
3√2 + 2√2
= 5√2 {combined like radicals}
Combining two or more terms are similar to combining two or more radicals.
What is a radical?
The 'n' th root of a number 'x' is written as [tex]\sqrt[n]{x}[/tex]. It is called a radical.
Combining two or more terms:
(a + 2a + 97a) = 100a
Combining two or more radicals:
(a[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] + 9a[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] + 90a[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]) = 100a[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
Therefore, combining two or more terms are similar to combining two or more radicals.
