To simplify the expression \( \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \), we can break down \( \sqrt{510} \) first.
-
Simplifying \( \sqrt{510} \): We can factor 510 into its prime factors: \[ 510 = 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 5 \cdot 17 \] Since there are no perfect squares in the factors, \( \sqrt{510} \) cannot be simplified further.
-
Next, we handle \( \sqrt{10} \): This remains as it is since 10 does not have any perfect square factors.
-
Now, combine both: \[ \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \]
However, for calculation:
- We can approximate \( \sqrt{510} \) and \( \sqrt{10} \): \[ \sqrt{510} \approx 22.6 \quad \text{and} \quad \sqrt{10} \approx 3.16 \] Thus, \[ \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \approx 22.6 + 3.16 \approx 25.76 \]
Regarding the options provided:
- \( \sqrt{25} \) which equals 5
- \( \sqrt{60} \) which cannot be simplified to a clean whole number
- \( \sqrt{610} \)
- \( 6\sqrt{10} \)
- \( \sqrt{620} \)
Since none of these match directly, \( \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \) does not simplify to a single square root expression among the options. The most feasible option approximating \( \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \) is closest to \( 25 \) or \( \sqrt{60} \) when combined.
Thus, the final option best approximating this expression or indicating its nature is not directly listed, but based on simplifying terms \( \sqrt{510} + \sqrt{10} \). If selecting based on closeness, one could circle back to consistencies in numerical values against whole roots. However, the answer to choose is:
"None of these values directly illustrate the sum, but the calculation directed indicates their establishment with numerical approximations."
