It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled
"Addition and Subtraction of Square Roots" that contains a series of problems involving the addition and subtraction of square roots. However, I currently cannot view or access images directly.
To help you solve the problems, please
describe the problems or
type out the expressions from the worksheet (e.g., "√12 + √27", etc.), and I’ll guide you step by step through solving them.
In the meantime, here’s how to approach such problems:

🔧 How to Add or Subtract Square Roots
You can only
add or subtract square roots if they have the
same radical part (i.e., the same number under the square root). This is similar to combining like terms in algebra.
#### Step-by-step method:
1.
Simplify each square root by factoring out perfect squares.
- Example: √12 = √(4 × 3) = √4 × √3 = 2√3
2.
Combine like terms (same radical parts).
- Example: 2√3 + 5√3 = (2+5)√3 = 7√3
3. If radicals are different and cannot be simplified to match,
they cannot be combined.

✔ Example Problem:
Solve: √8 + √18
Step 1: Simplify each term
- √8 = √(4×2) = 2√2
- √18 = √(9×2) = 3√2
Step 2: Add like terms
- 2√2 + 3√2 = 5√2
✔ Final Answer:
5√2
