Find the value of k in the equation sqrt 28 sqr... - JAMB Mathematics 2019 Question

Find the value of k in the equation: \(\sqrt{28} + \sqrt{112} - \sqrt{k} = \sqrt{175}\)

A
\(\sqrt{28}\)
B
7
C
28
D
\(\sqrt{7}\)
correct option: b

\(\sqrt{28} + \sqrt{112} - \sqrt{k} = \sqrt{175}\)

\(\sqrt{4 \times 7} + \sqrt{16 \times 7} - \sqrt{k} = \sqrt{25 \times 7}\)

\(2\sqrt{7} + 4\sqrt{7} - \sqrt{k} = 5\sqrt{7}\)

\(6\sqrt{7} - 5\sqrt{7} = \sqrt{k}\)

\(\sqrt{k} = \sqrt{7}\)

\(\implies k = 7\)
