Use the product rule to multiply the following. 6 ⋅ 5 \sqrt6\cdot\sqrt5

we're asked to use the product rule to multiply the following. We have the square root of six times the square root of five. In order to do this multiplication, I can use the product rule to condense this into one square root. So rewriting this is the square root of six times five with that multiplication happening underneath that one square root as opposed to two separate ones. Now six times five is 30, so this is going to be the square root of 30. So having done that multiplication, this is my solution here, the square root of 30. I'll see you in the next one.

Use the product rule to multiply the following.
$\sqrt{6} \cdot \sqrt{5}$

$\sqrt{11}$

$\sqrt{30}$

$\sqrt3$

$11$

Verified step by step guidance

Identify the product rule for square roots, which states that $ \sqrt{a} \cdot \sqrt{b} = \sqrt{a \cdot b} $.

Apply the product rule to the given expression $ \sqrt{6} \cdot \sqrt{5} $ by multiplying the numbers inside the square roots: $ 6 \times 5 $.

Write the product inside a single square root: $ \sqrt{6 \times 5} $.

Simplify the multiplication inside the square root to get $ \sqrt{30} $.

Check if the number inside the square root can be simplified further by factoring out perfect squares; since 30 has no perfect square factors other than 1, the expression $ \sqrt{30} $ is already in simplest form.
