    Fraction with Radical - need to simplify (easy)

    This is probably easy for everyone on this forum but me. Can someone please explain this to me. I need to simplify this: (sqrt(x) - 4) / (x - 16)) am I on the right track by doing it this way... (sqrt(x) - 4) / (sqrt(x) - 4) (sqrt(x) + 4) ...then cancel the (sqrt(x) - 4) in the...

    Would a noble gas react with a radical?

    ... or would it be inert to it as well? And if this depends on the particular gas and radical, could you give an example of when a reaction would/wouldn't occur?

    Circle composition operator / Jacobson Radical

    In attempting to prove an algebraic identity in physics, I found that my proof was simplified in appearance if i used an operation a@b=a + b - ab By flipping through a book on ring theory, I found that this is called a "circle composition operation", and it is used in one definition of the...

    How do I simplify radical equations with nested radicals?

    Simplify sqrt(11+sqrt72)) + sqrt(11-sqrt(72)) better picture here http://members.rogers.com/agentj/images/math.jpg I don't know where to begin for this one, but apparently my calculator says the answer is 6 :redface:

    Simplify Radical Fraction Expression: (y^-3 - x^-3) / (xy^-1 + x^-1y + 1)

    Simplify (y^-3 - x^-3) / (xy^-1 + x^-1y + 1) better picture of it here http://members.rogers.com/agentj/images/math2.jpg I tried flipping the variables with negative exponents to the numerator and denominator, but then had no idea what to do next :frown:
