sqrt22/sqrt55=(sqrt2*sqrt11)/(sqrt5*sqrt11)
=sqrt 2/sqrt 5 [Since sqrt 11 cancels]

Rationalize the denominator.

√22/√55

First: multiply the denominator with the fraction.

(√55)(√22)/(√55)(√55)
√(1,210)/√(3,025)

Sec: simplify the numbers into lowest terms. At this step, you don't cross cancel any terms.

√(2*5*11*11)/√(5*5*11*11)

Third: when a number is repeated twice, place it (once) in front of its radical sign & combine the rest.

(11√10)/5*11
(11√10)/55

Multiply by sqrt 55 / sqrt 55

Sqrt 1210 / 55

You can probably simplify the fraction even further.

*Using PMP's answer*

sqrt 2 / sqrt 5

Multiply by sqrt 5 on both sides.

sqrt 10 / 5

sqrt(22) = sqrt(2 * 11) = sqrt(2) * sqrt(11)
sqrt(55) = sqrt(5 * 11) = sqrt(5) * sqrt(11)

The "sqrt(11)" cancels out on top and on the bottom.

sqrt(2)/sqrt(5)

To rationalize the denominator, multiply through by sqrt(5) on top and on the bottom. You'll get...

sqrt(10) / 5

h(x) = 4(x+3)^2 + 7 the reason for it incredibly is a horizontal translation gets subtracted from x. A shift of -3 outcomes interior the previous function considering x -(-3) = x +3. A vertical shift gets subtracted from y. So, in case you wanted to shift it 3 gadgets up, it would appear as if this: h(x) - 3 = 4x^2 +7, and you will in simple terms remedy for h(x) to yield h(x) = 4x^2 + 10.

sqrt22/sqrt55=sqrt(22/55)=sqrt(2/5)=sqrt(2)/sqrt(5)=sqrt(0,4)

sqrt22=sqrt2*sqrt11
sqrt55=sqrt5*sqrt11

sqrt22/sqrt55

=(sqrt2*sqrt11)/(sqrt5*sqrt11)
=sqrt2/sqrt5
