Answer:

30+12(square root of 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

30 + 12[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To rationalise the denominator, multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

The conjugate of 2[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] - 4 is 2[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] + 4 , then

[tex]\frac{12\sqrt{5}(2\sqrt{5}+4) }{(2\sqrt{5}-4)(2\sqrt{5}+4) }[/tex] ← expand denominator using FOIL

= [tex]\frac{120+48\sqrt{5} }{20-16}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{120+48\sqrt{5} }{4}[/tex] ( divide each term on numerator by 4 )

= 30 + 12[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]
