2)

RADICAL = √147

147 = 3*49

147 = 3*7²

√147 = √(3*7²)

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= √(3)√()

Use formula : √(a²) = a

= √(3)(7)

= 7√(3)

Simplified radical is 73

1)

RADICAL = √72

72 = 2*36

72 = 2*6²

√72 = √(2*6²)

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= √(2)√()

Use formula : √(a²) = a

= √(2)(6)

= 6√(2)

Simplified radical is 62

3)

RADICAL = √175

175 = 5*35

175 = 5*5*7

175 = 7*5²

√175 = √(7*5²)

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= √(7)√(5²)

Use formula : √(a²) = a

= √(7)(5)

= 5√(7)

Simplified radical is 5√7

4)

RADICAL = ³√48

48 = 2*24

48 = 2*2*12

48 = 2*2*2*6

48 = 2³6

³√48 = ³√(2³6)

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= ³√(2³)³√(6)

Use formula : ³√(a³) = a

= ³√(6)(2)

= 2(³√6)

Simplified radical is 2(³√6)

5)

RADICAL = √(54x²y³)

54 = 2*27

= 2*3*9

= 2*3*3²

= 6*3²

y³ = y*y*y = y²y

√(54x²y³) = √(6*3²*x²*y²*y)

= √[6y*(3xy)²]

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= √[6y]√[(3xy)²]

Use formula : √(a²) = a

= √[6y][(3xy)]

= 3xy(6y)

Simplified radical is 3xy(6y).

6)

RADICAL = ³√72(xy6)

72 = 2*36

72 = 2*2*18

72 = 2*2*2*9

72 = 2³9

y6 = y*y*y*y*y*y

y6 = (y2)(y2)(y2)

y6 = (y2

³√72(xy6) = ³√[ (2³)(9)(x)(y2)³]

= ³√[ (2y2(9x)]

Use formula : √(ab) = √(a)√(b)

= ³√[(2y2] [³√(9x)]

Use formula : ³√(a³) = a

= (2y2)(³√(9x))

Simplified mixed radical is (2y2)[³√(9x)].
