Answer:

8 sqrt(10)

Step-by-step explanation:

2 sqrt(8) * sqrt(20)

We know sqrt(a) * sqrt(b) = sqrt(ab)

2 sqrt(8) * sqrt(20)

2 sqrt(160)

2 sqrt(16*10)

2 sqrt(16) sqrt(10)

2 *4 sqrt(10)

8 sqrt(10)

Answer:

First, we can write 2√8 as 2 x √8. This will make the next calculations easier.

So the problem becomes 2 x √8 x √20.  

We can group together √8 and √20, to get √160.

And we have: 2√160.

However, this can be simplified further, as 16x10 = 160, and so we obtain the  final answer of 8√10.

C is correct.
