Question 1 of 5
Adding & Subtracting Radicals

To add or subtract radicals, the degree and radicand must be the same. For example, \(2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{3} = 5\sqrt{3}\) but \(2\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{3}\) cannot be added because they have different radicands.

What is \( 3 \)\( \sqrt{20} \) - \( 9 \)\( \sqrt{5} \)

-6\( \sqrt{4} \)
-3\( \sqrt{5} \)
-6\( \sqrt{5} \)
-6\( \sqrt{21} \)
