What is the value of \( \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6}}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{6}}\right) \)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(2\sqrt{6}\)

Use a common denominator for the two fractions. The denominator product is \\( (\sqrt7-\sqrt6)(\sqrt7+\sqrt6)=7-6=1\\), by the difference-of-squares identity. The combined numerator is \\(\sqrt7+\sqrt6-(\sqrt7-\sqrt6)=2\sqrt6\\). Since the denominator equals 1, the whole expression is \\(2\sqrt6\\). Therefore option A is correct.

The subtraction sign is important: subtracting the second numerator changes both signs inside its parentheses, so the \\(\sqrt7\\) terms cancel and the two \\(\sqrt6\\) terms add. Both denominators are nonzero because \\(\sqrt7\ne\sqrt6\\). A numerical check gives a value near 4.90, matching \\(2\sqrt6\\). Thus the supplied answer A is valid and follows directly from conjugates and the difference-of-squares formula.
