Answer:

distribute the radicals, simplify the radicals, combine like terms

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5sqrt[2]-sqrt[6])(sqrt[3]+2sqrt[2])

[tex](-5\sqrt{2})-\sqrt{6} )(\sqrt{3} +2\sqrt{2} )[/tex]

To multiply it , we apply FOIL method

Distribute the radicals inside the second parenthesis

After distributing the radicals inside the second parenthesis we multiply and simplify the radical as much as we can

Then we combine like terms to simplify further

distribute the radicals, simplify the radicals, combine like terms
