15√(-432) 180i√(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pleas explain how u did that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

432 = 144*3 15√(144 * -3) 15√(144)√(-3) 15*12√-3 180√-3 180i√3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay...we jus learned bout the "i"s can u explain those to me if u dont mind...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

√(-1) = i That's what it's defined as. In this problem we had √(-3) = √(-1)√(3) = i√(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any time you have the square root of a negative number you can make it positive by pulling an "i" outside the square root.
