\sqrt{(8x^(2))/(2x)} = \frac{\sqrt{8x^(2)}}{√(2x)} = \frac{\sqrt{4 * x^(2) * 2}}{√(2x)} = \frac{ √(4)\sqrt{x^(2)} √(2)}{√(2x)} = (2x√(2))/(√(2x)) = (2x)/(√(x)) = 2√(x)

The answer is D, x > 0.

So that the ratio is defined:

* The denominator can not be zero
* Being an integer index pair, the filing must be greater or equal to zero.

It is concluded that:


x ≠ 0 ∧ 2x ≥ 0
x ≥0

.:. x > 0

R/ alternative d) x>0
