Problem

Simplify square root of 10xz^10( square root of 30x^17z)

The problem is asking for the simplification of a mathematical expression involving radical terms (square roots). Specifically, you are given the product of two square roots: the square root of an expression, 10xz^10, and another square root of an expression, 30x^17z. You are supposed to combine these two square roots and simplify the result as much as possible, combining like terms, and rationalizing if necessary, to express the result in the simplest radical form.

Solution:

Step:1

Express $10 x z^{10}$ as the product of $z^{5}$ squared and $10 x$.

Step:1.1

Represent $z^{10}$ as $(z^{5})^{2}$.

$\sqrt{10 x (z^{5})^{2}} \sqrt{30 x^{17} z}$

Step:1.2

Rearrange to place $x$ outside.

$\sqrt{10 (z^{5})^{2} x} \sqrt{30 x^{17} z}$

Step:1.3

Switch the positions of $10$ and $(z^{5})^{2}$.

$\sqrt{(z^{5})^{2} \cdot 10 x} \sqrt{30 x^{17} z}$

Step:1.4

Enclose with parentheses.

$\sqrt{(z^{5})^{2} \cdot (10 x)} \sqrt{30 x^{17} z}$

Step:2

Extract terms from under the square root.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{30 x^{17} z}$

Step:3

Decompose $30 x^{17} z$ into a perfect square and remaining factors.

Step:3.1

Factor out $x^{16}$ from the expression.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{30 x^{16} x z}$

Step:3.2

Express $x^{16}$ as $(x^{8})^{2}$.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{30 (x^{8})^{2} x z}$

Step:3.3

Reorder $30$ and $(x^{8})^{2}$.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{(x^{8})^{2} \cdot 30 x z}$

Step:3.4

Rewrite $x^{8}$ as $(x^{4})^{2}$.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{((x^{4})^{2})^{2} \cdot 30 x z}$

Step:3.5

Surround with parentheses.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} \sqrt{((x^{4})^{2})^{2} \cdot (30 x z)}$

Step:4

Extract terms from under the radical.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} (x^{8} \sqrt{30 x z})$

Step:5

Apply exponent multiplication in $(x^{4})^{2}$.

Step:5.1

Utilize the power rule $(a^{m})^{n} = a^{mn}$.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} (x^{4 \cdot 2} \sqrt{30 x z})$

Step:5.2

Calculate $4 \times 2$.

$z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} (x^{8} \sqrt{30 x z})$

Step:6

Combine $z^{5} \sqrt{10 x} (x^{8} \sqrt{30 x z})$.

Step:6.1

Merge using the product property of square roots.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{10 x (30 x z)})$

Step:6.2

Multiply $30$ by $10$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{300 x (x z)})$

Step:6.3

Elevate $x$ to the first power.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{300 (x^{1} x) z})$

Step:6.4

Raise $x$ to the first power again.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{300 (x^{1} x^{1}) z})$

Step:6.5

Combine exponents using $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{300 x^{1 + 1} z})$

Step:6.6

Add $1$ and $1$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{300 x^{2} z})$

Step:7

Express $300 x^{2} z$ as the square of $10 x$ times $3 z$.

Step:7.1

Extract $100$ from $300$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{100 (3) x^{2} z})$

Step:7.2

Represent $100$ as $10^{2}$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{(10)^{2} \cdot 3 x^{2} z})$

Step:7.3

Reposition $3$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{(10)^{2} x^{2} \cdot 3 z})$

Step:7.4

Rewrite $(10)^{2} x^{2}$ as $(10 x)^{2}$.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{((10 x)^{2}) \cdot 3 z})$

Step:7.5

Enclose with parentheses.

$z^{5} (x^{8} \sqrt{((10 x)^{2}) \cdot (3 z)})$

Step:8

Extract terms from under the radical.

$z^{5} (x^{8} (10 x \sqrt{3 z}))$

Step:9

Reorder using the commutative property.

$10 z^{5} (x^{8} x \sqrt{3 z})$

Step:10

Add exponents when multiplying $x^{8}$ and $x$.

Step:10.1

Multiply $x^{8}$ by $x$.

Step:10.1.1

Raise $x$ to the first power.

$10 z^{5} (x^{8} x^{1} \sqrt{3 z})$

Step:10.1.2

Combine exponents with $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$.

$10 z^{5} (x^{8 + 1} \sqrt{3 z})$

Step:10.2

Sum $8$ and $1$.

$10 z^{5} (x^{9} \sqrt{3 z})$ $10 z^{5} x^{9} \sqrt{3 z}$

Knowledge Notes:

  1. Square Roots: The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number. The square root of $a$ is written as $\sqrt{a}$.

  2. Exponent Rules: When an exponent is raised to another exponent, the powers are multiplied: $(a^{m})^{n} = a^{mn}$. When multiplying like bases, the exponents are added: $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$.

  3. Radicals: Terms under a square root can often be simplified by factoring out perfect squares.

  4. Commutative Property: The order of multiplication does not affect the product: $ab = ba$.

  5. Simplifying Expressions: Combining like terms and using algebraic rules to simplify expressions is a common practice in algebra.

  6. LaTeX Formatting: Mathematical expressions can be neatly formatted using LaTeX, a typesetting system that uses commands to represent various mathematical symbols and structures.
