A)9-8i

Step-by-step explanation


9-\sqrt[]{-64}

Step 1

Let's remember that

A complex number is an object of the form


a+bi

where a and b are real numbers and


\begin{gathered} i^2=-1 \\ i=\sqrt[]{-1} \end{gathered}

so


\begin{gathered} 9-\sqrt[]{-64} \\ 9-\sqrt[]{-1\cdot64} \\ 9-\sqrt[]{-1}\sqrt[]{64} \\ 9-8\sqrt[]{-1} \\ 9-8i \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is


A)9-8i

I hope this helps you
