The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \((3 - \sqrt{-16}) / (1 - \sqrt{-9})\) and express it in the form \(a + ib\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the square roots of negative numbers We know that \(\sqrt{-1} = i\). Therefore, we can rewrite the square roots: - \(\sqrt{-16} = \sqrt{16} \cdot \sqrt{-1} = 4i\) - \(\sqrt{-9} = \sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{-1} = 3i\) Now, substitute these values into the expression: \[ \frac{3 - \sqrt{-16}}{1 - \sqrt{-9}} = \frac{3 - 4i}{1 - 3i} \] ### Step 2: Rationalize the denominator To eliminate the imaginary part in the denominator, we multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator: \[ \frac{3 - 4i}{1 - 3i} \cdot \frac{1 + 3i}{1 + 3i} \] ### Step 3: Multiply the numerators and denominators Now, we will multiply the numerators and denominators: - **Numerator**: \[ (3 - 4i)(1 + 3i) = 3 \cdot 1 + 3 \cdot 3i - 4i \cdot 1 - 4i \cdot 3i = 3 + 9i - 4i - 12(-1) = 3 + 5i + 12 = 15 + 5i \] - **Denominator**: \[ (1 - 3i)(1 + 3i) = 1^2 - (3i)^2 = 1 - 9(-1) = 1 + 9 = 10 \] ### Step 4: Combine the results Now we can write the expression as: \[ \frac{15 + 5i}{10} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the fraction We can separate the real and imaginary parts: \[ \frac{15}{10} + \frac{5i}{10} = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{1}{2}i \] ### Final Result Thus, the result in the form \(a + ib\) is: \[ \frac{3}{2} + \frac{1}{2}i \]
