Answer:


Explanation:

A = 4 and B = 5

Explanation

Group the same prime factors into pairs

√(2 x 2) x (2 x 2) x 5

Rewrite each pair in exponent form

√2
\sqrt{2^(2) x 2^(2) x 5

use the
\sqrt{2^(2) } = x rule

(2 x 2)
√(5)

simplify

4√5

Answer:

a = 4

b = 5

Explanation:

We are given square root 80
(√(80) ) and we are to write it in the form
\sqrt[a]{b} and figure out what values are a and b.

First of all, we would find the factors of 80 which, preferably are a square of a number, and when multiplied give a product of 80, which are:


√(16) ×
√(5)

Since
√(16) can further be squared so we can write it as:


√(80) =
4√(5)
