you have a typo and then transcribed that error
should have been
(55 - 5√5)/(121-5)
=(55 - 5√5)/116
5/11+root5
How would I rationalize this
I think it would be -
Multiply both sides by 11-root5
then use the foil method on the denominator to give you 55-5root5/121+5root11-5root11-5
the 2 roots would cancel out giving you 55-5root5/12-5
so would the answer be 55-5root5/7
thanks in advance
