The opposite of a square root is raising a number to a power that cancels it out. In this case, the opposite of -7√(a) is 49a.

The opposite of a square root is raising a number to a power that cancels out the square root.

In the question, you are given -7√(a).

To find the opposite or inverse of this, you need to raise the number to a power that eliminates the square root.

In this case, you need to square (-7) to undo the square root. So the opposite of -7√(a) is (-7)2 * a = 49a.

The probable question may be:

What is the opposite or inverse operation for the expression -7√(a)?
