Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, notice that
7 + 4 sqrt(3)
= 4 + 2 sqrt(3) + 2 sqrt(3) + 3
= (2 + sqrt(3))^2
Now, since
√x + 1/√x = (x + 1) / sqrt(x),
Substitute 7 + 4 sqrt(3) for x:
= (7 + 4 sqrt(3) + 1) / sqrt(7 + 4 sqrt(3))
Collect terms:
= ( 8 + 4 sqrt(3)) / (2 + sqrt(3))
Factor the numerator:
= 4 [ ( 2 + sqrt(3) ) / (2 + sqrt(3)) ]
= 4 (1)
= 4
