Answer:

option (a) is correct.

The Simplest form of the radical expression
4\sqrt[4]{2}x+6\sqrt[4]{2}x is
10\sqrt[4]{2}x

Explanation:

Given expression
4\sqrt[4]{2}x+6\sqrt[4]{2}x

We have to write the given expression in simplest form.

Consider the given expression
4\sqrt[4]{2}x+6\sqrt[4]{2}x

Since both terms have
\sqrt[4]{2}x,

Using
ax+bx=(a+b)x

Taking
\sqrt[4]{2}x common , we get,


4\sqrt[4]{2}x+6\sqrt[4]{2}x\\\\ \Rightarrow \sqrt[4]{2}x(4+6)\\\\ \Rightarrow 10\sqrt[4]{2}x

Thus, option (a) is correct.

The Simplest form of the radical expression
4\sqrt[4]{2}x+6\sqrt[4]{2}x is
10\sqrt[4]{2}x
