Respuesta :

Answer:

  simplify the radical

Step-by-step explanation:

You have shown the solution using the quadratic formula.

The final step is to simplify the radical expression. That is done by factoring out perfect squares and simplifying the fraction.

  [tex]x=\dfrac{\pm\sqrt{120}}{12}=\dfrac{\pm\sqrt{2^2\cdot30}}{12}=\dfrac{\pm2\sqrt{30}}{12}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pm\sqrt{30}}{6}=\left\{\dfrac{1}{6}\sqrt{30}\,,\ -\dfrac{1}{6}\sqrt{30}\right\}[/tex]

Additional comment

0 is the additive identity element, so adding or subtracting zero changes nothing.

  [tex]0\pm\sqrt{120}=\pm\sqrt{120}[/tex]
