Full solution

Q. Subtract. Write your answer in simplest form.\newline2555-2\sqrt{5} - 5\sqrt{5}
  1. Identify coefficients: 2555-2 \sqrt{5} - 5 \sqrt{5}\newlineIdentify the expression that combines the coefficients.\newline2555=(25)5-2 \sqrt{5} - 5 \sqrt{5} = (-2 - 5) \sqrt{5}
  2. Combine coefficients: Simplify: (25)5(-2 - 5) \sqrt{5}(25)5(-2 - 5) \sqrt{5} = 75-7 \sqrt{5}
