If \(\sqrt{50} – K\sqrt{8} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\), find K
- -2
- -1
- 1
-
2
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
\(\sqrt{50} - K\sqrt{8} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\)\(\sqrt{50} - \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\) = K\(\sqrt{8}\)
= \(\sqrt{2} \times 25 - \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\)
= K \(\sqrt{4 \times 2}\)
\(\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{1} - \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}\) = 2K\(\sqrt{2}\)
\(\frac{5\sqrt{4} - 2}{\sqrt{2}} = 2K\sqrt{2}\)
\(\frac{10 - 2}{\sqrt{2}} = 2K \sqrt{2}\)
\(\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{2K\sqrt{2}}{1}\)
= 2k\(\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2}\) = 8
2k \(\sqrt{4}\) = 8
2k x 2 = 8
4k = 8
k = \(\frac{8}{4}\)
k = 2
