Question
Simplify each expression, if possible. All variables represent positive real numbers.$$\sqrt[3]{24 x}+\sqrt[3]{3 x}$$
Step 1
We get $24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3$. We can see that there are three 2's, which can be taken out of the cube root because we need three of the same number to take it out from under the cube root. So, we rewrite the expression as $2\sqrt[3]{3x} + Show more…
