Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

We begin by rewriting the square root of a negative number:

$$
\sqrt{-16} = \sqrt{16 \cdot (-1)} = \sqrt{16} \cdot \sqrt{-1} = 4i.
$$

Next, we evaluate the square root of a positive number:

$$
\sqrt{49} = 7.
$$

Now, we add the two results:

$$
\sqrt{-16}+\sqrt{49} = 4i + 7.
$$

Rearranging into the standard form $$ a + bi $$, we obtain:

$$
7+4i.
$$

Thus, the correct answer is:

C. $$ 7+4i $$.
The answer is $$ 7+4i $$, choice C.
