- Make Sense? In Exercises 135–138, determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. 135. I use the same ideas to multiply (V2 + 5) (V2 + 4) that I did to find the binomial product (x + 5)(x + 4). 136. I used a special-product formula and simplified as follows: (V2 + V5)? = 2 + 5 = 7. 137. In some cases when I multiply a square root expression and its conjugate, the simplified product contains a radical. 138. I use the fact that 1 is the multiplicative identity to both rationalize denominators and rewrite rational expressions with a common denominator.arrow_forwardExercises 105–107 will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. 105.
