Answer:
B. [tex]2ab^5\sqrt{2ab}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify, first, simplify the integers. The integers include the number 8. To simplify 8, find out what is the largest perfect square that is a factor of 8. In this case, that is 4. Then, divide 8 by that number. This equals [tex]\sqrt{4} *\sqrt{2}[/tex]. Since the square root of 4 is 2, it can be taken out of under the radical. So, the new expression is [tex]2\sqrt{2a^3b^11}[/tex].
Next, simplify the exponents. To simplify exponents under a radical divide the exponent by the root. For example, 3 divided by 2 is 1 with a remainder of 1. So, take the answer out from under the radical and then leave the remainder in the radical. This looks like[tex]\sqrt{a^3} = a\sqrt{a}[/tex]. Then, do this for the other variable, [tex]\sqrt{b^11} = b^5\sqrt{b}[/tex]. Finally, put everything for the final answer, [tex]2ab^5\sqrt{2ab}[/tex].
