Q. Simplify.Multiply and remove all perfect squares from inside the square roots. Assume z is positive.514z2⋅421z3=
Write expression: Write down the expression to be simplified.We have the expression 514z2⋅421z3.
Multiply coefficients: Multiply the coefficients (numbers outside the square roots) together. 5×4=20
Multiply radicands: Multiply the radicands (expressions inside the square roots) together. 14z2×21z3=14×21×z2×z3
Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication inside the square root. 14×21=294z2×z3=z2+3=z5So, 14×21×z2×z3=294×z5
Factor out perfect squares: Factor out perfect squares from the radicand. 294 can be factored into 2×3×7×7, and z5 can be written as z4×z.So, 294×z5=2×3×7×7×z4×z
Take out perfect squares: Take out the perfect squares from under the square root. 7×7 is a perfect square, and z4 is a perfect square. So, 2×3×7×7×z4×z=7z2×2×3×z
Simplify expression: Simplify the expression inside the square root. 2×3=6 So, 7z2×2×3×z=7z2×6z
Multiply with coefficient: Multiply the result from Step 6 with the coefficient from Step 2.20×7z2×6z=140z2×6z
