Q. Simplify.Remove all perfect squares from inside the square root. Assume y is positive.200y4=
Factorize and Separate Powers: Break down the number 200 into its prime factors and separate the powers of y. 200 can be factored into 2×100, and 100 is a perfect square (102). The variable y4 is also a perfect square since (y2)2=y4. 200y4=2×100×y4
Simplify Square Root: Simplify the square root by taking out the perfect squares.The square root of 100 is 10, and the square root of y4 is y2.200y4=2×100×y4=2×10×y2
Combine Simplified Terms: Combine the simplified terms outside the square root. Since 2 remains under the square root and 10⋅y2 are outside, we combine them to get the final simplified expression. 200y4=10y2⋅2
