Math Problem Statement

Simplify the expression 3√3(4√3 + 3).

Solution

The expression shown in the image is:

33(43+3)3 \sqrt{3} \left( 4 \sqrt{3} + 3 \right)

Let's simplify this step by step.

Step 1: Distribute 333 \sqrt{3} to both terms inside the parentheses.

33×43+33×33 \sqrt{3} \times 4 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{3} \times 3

Step 2: Multiply the first part: 33×433 \sqrt{3} \times 4 \sqrt{3}.

3×4×3×3=12×3=363 \times 4 \times \sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3} = 12 \times 3 = 36

Step 3: Multiply the second part: 33×33 \sqrt{3} \times 3.

3×3×3=933 \times 3 \times \sqrt{3} = 9 \sqrt{3}

Step 4: Combine the results.

36+9336 + 9 \sqrt{3}

Thus, the simplified expression is:

36+9336 + 9 \sqrt{3}

  2. Can you factor out any terms from 36+9336 + 9 \sqrt{3}?
  3. How would you approach simplifying an expression with higher powers of square roots?
  4. What happens if you had a different base under the square root, like 5\sqrt{5} instead of 3\sqrt{3}?
  5. How would you solve the equation if this expression were equal to a value, like 36+93=x36 + 9 \sqrt{3} = x?

Tip: When simplifying expressions with square roots, always combine like terms and apply basic properties of square roots such as a×a=a\sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{a} = a.
