Answer:


49 - √(200)i

Explanation:

Oh man, i is very fun! Remember: i =
√(-1)

The only negative value here is
√(-200)

We can rewrite this as:
√(200) * i

Simplify our radicals:


√(200) = 5*2√(2) = 10√(2)\\ √(121) = 11

Now, our equation should read like this:


38 - √(200)i + 11\\

Simplify those whole numbers:


49 - √(200)i

And there we have our answer
