What would \(\Large \sqrt{36}\) simplify to?
OpenStudy (ememnim):
6
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yes
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
How about \(\Large \sqrt{-49}\) ?

hint:
\[\Large \sqrt{-49} = \sqrt{-1*49} = \sqrt{-1}*\sqrt{49} = ???\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
another hint:
\[\Large i = \sqrt{-1}\]
OpenStudy (ememnim):
49? or 1? idk
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
Imaginary values are used to convert negative radicals to variable-related answers.
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[\Large \sqrt{-49} = \sqrt{-1*49} = \sqrt{-1}*\sqrt{49} = i*7 = 7i\]
hopefully this makes sense?

You may do part by part, as jim has shown above.
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
You may do the same for radical of -81.
OpenStudy (ememnim):
okay so what do i put
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
If we do the same for sqrt(-81) we would get
\[\Large \sqrt{-81} = \sqrt{-1*81} = \sqrt{-1}*\sqrt{81} = i*9 = 9i\]
with me so far?
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
It has not been fully worked out yet.

ok
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
\[2 + 6 - 7i + 9i \]
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
May you simplify that for me?
OpenStudy (ememnim):
two people helping me is extremely confusing. @Vuriffy john can help me thanks anyways.
OpenStudy (vuriffy):
Okay, I apologize. Enjoy. Great job, @jim_thompson5910.
