Simplifying Radical Expressions Involving Variables - Example 1

[patriciaw.]

These videos are so helpful couldn't pass college without them. Patrick explains terms and problems better then my professors do! Love him!

It is cool how much you care about other people by devoting your time to help us with math and you even take your time to comment back on a lot of comments. Thanks.

Your videos have helped me so much in college. Just wanted to say thanks! I think they should show these in every relevant classroom

You're a legend man. You've saved my life in multiple math classes over the last 2 years (including tonight, My exam is in less than 6 hours). Cheers.

THANK GOD we have people like you. I almost failed my first marking period passed with a D :( and now ever since I have been watching you I have an A 94% :) thank you so much and now math is fun btw my teacher doesnt know how to explain problems he just does them, and FAST!! but I am in H Algebra 2 thats how it is THANK YOU keep it up with the videos.

Dude, you helped me out alot and explained everything really well, and your handwritting is good. Thanks Patrick.

[Balletunicorn]

Thanks so much!!! I didn't watch the second example, but I didn't need to!

But I think you can simplify the solution further than what is in the video...

I can't find a good example of what I need (I'm sure I'd find something if I looked really hard), but I wanted to say thanks so much anyways, because even though I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, your videos are very clear and easy to understand.

When I search for math videos my first choice is uploads from patrickJMT because I know they are legit and most of all FREE!

[BrianKozaczek]

patrick, Thanks for these videos I am learning and re-learning a lot.

But
At 4:52 when you finish part A isn't this incorrect because you would have to distribute into the X and Z terms that you broke apart?
Should there just be parentheses around X and Z terms?
that is;
= 2*sqrt 6(x*sqrt x)(y^2)(z*sqrt z)

Thanks for the help. I have a long way to go to watch all of your videos.

[Scaredcoward]

thanks, in the beginning of A. when its not showing anything we assume that it is a 2 outside of a radical

[oPKPKo]

so much better than school, now I understand, thx

[ouredgar]

this is amazing, patrick! thank you so much.

[DancingDynamite]

Holy crap you just saved my butt. Thanks so much!

[eunsho]

Thank you so much! I wish you are my math teacher. :)

[TehhSpade]

Thank you so much! I have a quiz in an hour and I was sleeping last class xD

[Mintcubes]

Thank you so much!! I swear, your videos help me A LOT :D

[pencilmein]

after 30 minutes of studying these I finally got the two right :)

[leavingonajetplane]

How do you simply a radical that's in fraction from if the indexes are different ?

Ex. Cube Root of 2x^-2 y^-3/ Square root of xy


Please help. Thank you.

+ your videos are awesome Thank you.
