PLZ help me with this :( Part 1: Simplify √250

Part 2: Classify the number above as rational or irrational

Level 3 (Proficient: 85%)

Part 1: Simplify √150x*5

Part 2: Is the follow expression rational or irrational and why? 2√4+7

Level 4 (Distinguished: 100%)

Part 1: Simplify 13√750x*5 y*8

Part 2: Create two unique expressions each involving 1 square root and at least 1 operation (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing). Make 1 results in a rational number and the other result in an irrational number. Explain your reasoning for both.

Explanation:

Level 2

Part 1: √250 would be simplified to 5√10, because you need to find two factors that equal 250. 25 multiplied by 10 are two factors that you can utilize. Because 25 is a perfect square, it could be reduced to 5. Because 10 isn't a perfect square, you leave it as a radical.

Part 2: √250 is an irrational number because it's a non-terminating decimal and you cannot convert it into a fraction, so it wouldn't be rational.

Level 3

Part 1: √150x^5 would be simplified to 5x^2√6x. Again, find two factors that equal the product, 150. 25 multiplied by 6 are two factors that are useable. Just like the first question, 25 is a perfect square, so it can be reduced to 5. 6 is not a perfect square, so you would leave as a radical. Now, moving onto x^5. You can factor out x^4, because it's a perfect square. x^4 can become x^2. Move x^2 next to 5 and x would be left in the radical with 6.

Part 2: It's rational because 2√4 is simply just 2 x 2 because √4 is a perfect square. 4+7=11. 11 can be converted into a fraction, so it wouldn't be irrational.

Level 4

Part 1: 13√750x*5 y*8 would be simplified to 65x^2y^4√30x. Find two factors that equal 750, which are 25 and 30. You know the drill, 25 is reduced to 5 and 30 stays as a radical. Multiply 13 and 5 to get 65. Factor out x^4 out of x^5 to get x^2. x^8 is a perfect square that can be reduced to x^4.

Part 2: Two unique expressions are 4√16+3 and 5√8 x 34. √16 is a perfect square, so it can become 4. 4 x 4 is 16 and 16 + 3 = 19. 19 is a rational number. 5√8 is irrational, so right off the bat, you'll know it's an irrational expression.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.
