Answer

$15x^2$

Work Step by Step

Using $\sqrt[n]{x}\cdot\sqrt[n]{y}=\sqrt[n]{xy},$ the given expression, $ \sqrt[]{9x^2}\cdot\sqrt[]{25x^2} ,$ is equivalent to \begin{align*} & \sqrt[]{9x^2(25x^2)} \\&= \sqrt[]{225x^4} .\end{align*} Extracting the root of the factors that is a perfect power of the index, the expression above is equivalent to \begin{align*} & \sqrt[]{(15x^2)^2} \\&= 15x^2 .\end{align*} Hence, the simplified form of the given expression is $ 15x^2 $.
