We can't just take something out of the denominator and do multiplication with it at the end.I know it might looks like as if that implied multiplication between 0.5 and root t has has just gone vanished, but we must not forget that our numerator has effectively doubled.

    for the last question can you simplify it even further by square rooting 100 and 9 to make 10/3xsquared

    • @kirstenlillie2918
      @kirstenlillie2918 3 года назад +1

      No, because then you would have an equation for the square root of y, not y! When we're simplifying a fraction (dividing top and bottom by 4, in this example), we're not changing the value of the RHS of the equation. If we take a square root of the RHS though, then we must also do the same to the LHS. I agree though, that it is very tempting :) Mathematicians love to spot that kind of pattern and it is certainly true that root y = 10/3x^2.
