Math Problem Statement
Solution
This image shows a math worksheet with expressions that need to be simplified, and a matching format where each "Given" expression (numbered 16 to 20) has to be matched with its simplified form listed in the "Choices" section below. Let's go through each problem and simplify the expressions to match them with the correct answer.
Problem 16:
- Simplifying this, we get:
- Let's find which choice corresponds to .
Problem 17:
- Simplifying this, we have:
- We are looking for a match with .
Problem 18:
- This expression doesn’t involve a square root and is already simplified, so we just match it as it is.
- Look for in the choices.
Problem 19:
- This is already in its simplest form, as cannot be simplified further.
- Look for in the choices.
Problem 20:
- Simplifying this, we get:
- We need to find the choice that matches .
Now, I’ll match these simplified answers with the options in the "Choices" grid.
Would you like me to continue with identifying each match in detail, or do you have any specific question about a part of this?
