Answer:


4√(-2)

Explanation:

We can write the expression
√(-18) in another form, by decomposing the number 18.


√(-18)=√(9(-2))=\sqrt{(3^(2))( -2)} =3√(-2)

Since the two terms have the same radicand, we can make the sum of the coefficients.


√(-2)+3√(-2)=4√(-2)

we can also express this number as


4√(-2)=√(-32)=4√(2)i
