jdoe0001 · Answer

a complex expression... as you'd know involves "i", or imaginary values
so a complex solution will have those too

What's your question ms andy? :)

anonymous · Answer

haha ok so this is the question i need to answer: When solving a radical equation, Amari and Justin came to two different conclusions. Amari found a solution, while Justin's solution did not work in the equation.

Create and justify two situations: one situation where Amari is correct and a separate situation where Justin is correct.

i just dont know if im supposed to use a complex solution or non-extranious?

zepdrix · Answer

I think non-extranious is what they're looking for.
Let's set up an equation... ummm thinking...
I think the easiest thing to do is to place a quadratic (which has a positive and negative root) under a radical.

No no no that doesn't work >.< Ok ok ok sorry thinking.
