√3(√30 + √8) can be simplified into the follwing format: x√10 + y√6 where are x and y are integers. Find the value of x and y.

Begin by expansion (√a x √b = √ab): √3 x √30 = √90 and √3 x √8 = √24. Therfore we have: √90 + √24. Simplify roots (√a^2√b). The question tells us we need x√10 so therefore √90 = √9√10 (9x10 = 90) and we n...
