Question

-6/4-√5 rationalize the denominator

Answer 1

`\((-3 - 2√(5))/(2)\)`

Explanation:

Start with
`\(-(6)/(4)\): Simplify the fraction to \(-(3)/(2)\).`

Combine with
`\(-√(5)\)`: Now we have
`\(-(3)/(2) - √(5)\).`

Rationalize the denominator: To make things more elegant, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2. This yields
`\((-3 - 2√(5))/(2)\).`
