Find the difference:

The difference cannot be found because the indices of the radicals are not the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the difference you need to subtract the radicals. But it is important ot remember the following: To make the subtraction of radicals, the indices and the radicand must be the same.

In this case you have these radicals:

You can observe that the radicands are the same, but their indices are not the same.

Therefore, since the indices are different you cannot subtract these radicals.

soo this can be solve by using the formula:

f = p( 1 + i)^ n

where f is the future profit

p is the initial profit

i is the percent increase

n is the number of years

a . f = 30000 ( 1.05)^n

b. f = 30000 ( 1.05)^15

f = $62,368
