Q. Simplify.Remove all perfect squares from inside the square root. Assume z is positive.72z5=
Factorizing 72 and expressing z5: Factor the number 72 and express z5 in terms of squares.72 can be factored into 2×2×2×3×3, which is 23×32. The expression z5 can be written as z4×z, where z4 is a perfect square.
Rewriting the square root expression: Rewrite the square root expression using the factors from Step 1.72z5 becomes 23⋅32⋅z4⋅z.
Separating perfect squares: Separate the perfect squares from the non-perfect squares inside the square root.This gives us 22⋅32⋅z4⋅2⋅z.
Simplifying the perfect squares: Simplify the square root of the perfect squares.Since 22 is 2, 32 is 3, and z4 is z2, we get 2×3×z2×2z.
Multiplying outside the square root: Multiply the numbers and variables outside the square root.This results in 6z2⋅2z.
Writing the final simplified expression: Write the final simplified expression.The final simplified expression is 6z2⋅2z.
