Q. Simplify the expression completely.−4−23−125−33−125+1Answer:
Square Root of −4: We need to simplify each term in the expression separately. Let's start with the first term, −4.The square root of a negative number involves an imaginary number. The square root of −1 is defined as the imaginary unit i.So, −4=4×−1=2i.
Simplify 23−125: Now let's simplify the second term, 23−125. The cube root of −125 is −5 because (−5)3=−125. So, 23−125=2×(−5)=−10.
Simplify 33−125: Next, we simplify the third term, 33−125. Using the same logic as the previous step, 33−125=3×(−5)=−15.
Square Root of 1: Finally, let's simplify the fourth term, 1.The square root of 1 is 1 because 12=1.So, 1=1.
Combine Simplified Terms: Now we combine all the simplified terms to get the final simplified expression. 2i−10−15+1=2i−24.
