Answer:
2√(6x)

Explanation:

The expression
4\sqrt{(3)/(2)x} can be written as:


4((√(3x))/(√(2)))

Therefore, to simplify the expression you need to Rationalize the denominator to get rid the radical
√(2):

Then, you must multiply the numerator and the denominator by
√(2).

Remember the following:


(√(a))^(2)=a

Also remember that:


\sqrt[n]{a}*\sqrt[n]{b}=\sqrt[n]{ab}

Therefore, you get:


4(((√(3x))(√(2)))/((√(2))(√(2))))=4((√(6x))/((√(2))^2))=4((√(6x))/(2))=(4√(6x))/(2)=2√(6x)
