simplify.
\sqrt{20x^{9}}
assume that the variable represents a positive real number.
Step1: 分解被开方数
将\(20x^9\)分解为能开方的因数和变量,\(20 = 4\times5\),\(x^9 = x^8\times x\),所以\(\sqrt{20x^9}=\sqrt{4\times5\times x^8\times x}\)。
Step2: 利用根式性质开方
根据\(\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\)(\(a\geq0,b\geq0\)),可得\(\sqrt{4\times5\times x^8\times x}=\sqrt{4}\times\sqrt{x^8}\times\sqrt{5x}\)。
因为\(\sqrt{4} = 2\),\(\sqrt{x^8}=x^4\)(\(x\)为正实数),所以\(\sqrt{4}\times\sqrt{x^8}\times\sqrt{5x}=2x^4\sqrt{5x}\)。
