To simplify the expression \(\sqrt{32x^6}\), we can break it down into simpler parts.
-
Start with the square root of the product:
\[ \sqrt{32x^6} = \sqrt{32} \cdot \sqrt{x^6} \]
-
Next, simplify \(\sqrt{32}\). We can factor \(32\) into \(16 \cdot 2\):
\[ \sqrt{32} = \sqrt{16 \cdot 2} = \sqrt{16} \cdot \sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2} \]
-
Now simplify \(\sqrt{x^6}\):
\[ \sqrt{x^6} = x^{6/2} = x^3 \]
-
Combine these results:
\[ \sqrt{32x^6} = 4\sqrt{2} \cdot x^3 \]
Putting it all together, we get:
\[ \sqrt{32x^6} = 4x^3\sqrt{2} \]
Thus, the expression equivalent to \(\sqrt{32x^6}\) is:
\[ 4x^3\sqrt{2} \]
