The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the number \( X \) such that: \[ X \cdot (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) = \sqrt{12} + \sqrt{18} \] ### Step 1: Simplify the right-hand side First, we simplify \( \sqrt{12} \) and \( \sqrt{18} \): \[ \sqrt{12} = \sqrt{4 \cdot 3} = 2\sqrt{3} \] \[ \sqrt{18} = \sqrt{9 \cdot 2} = 3\sqrt{2} \] Now, we can rewrite the equation: \[ X \cdot (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) = 2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{2} \] ### Step 2: Divide both sides by \( (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) \) To isolate \( X \), we divide both sides by \( (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) \): \[ X = \frac{2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 3: Rationalize the denominator To simplify this expression, we will multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of the denominator, which is \( (\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}) \): \[ X = \frac{(2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2})}{(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2})} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the denominator The denominator simplifies as follows: \[ (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}) = 3 - 2 = 1 \] ### Step 5: Simplify the numerator Now, we simplify the numerator: \[ (2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}) = 2\sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{3} - 2\sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{2} + 3\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{3} - 3\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2} \] Calculating each term: \[ = 2 \cdot 3 - 2\sqrt{6} + 3\sqrt{6} - 3 \cdot 2 \] \[ = 6 - 3 - 2\sqrt{6} + 3\sqrt{6} \] \[ = 3 + \sqrt{6} \] ### Step 6: Final expression for \( X \) Thus, we have: \[ X = 3 + \sqrt{6} \] ### Conclusion After evaluating the options, we see that the correct answer is \( \sqrt{6} \) which corresponds to option C.
