Question

Simplify: √2+ √6
A.) √2+√3
B.) √2
C.)3√2
D.)None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: Option (D) None of the above

Explanation:

To simplify the expression
`√(2) + √(6)`, we need to try to express both
`√(2)` and
`√(6)` in a way that allows us to combine them.

One way to do this is to rewrite
`√(6)` as
`√(2 * 3)` =
`√(2) √(3)` .Substituting this into the original expression, we get:

`√(2) + √(2) * √(3)`

We can simplify this by using the fact that

`√(a)√(b) = √(a * b)`.

`√(2) √(3) = √(2 * 3)`=
`√(6)`.

Substituting this back into the original expression, we get:

`√(2) + √(6) = √(2) + √(6)`

Thus, Option (D) None of the above,
