Answer:

18-5i

Explanation:

I can't see the answer choices but all you have to do is simplify this equation.

18-√-25

What is the square root of -25?

Well first we make the -25 into 25 because we can't do anything with a negative.

So square root of 25 is 5

Now plug 5 into the equation

18-5

Then multiply i to 5 because we're not sure what the exact value of 18-√-25 is.

Hope this Helps!
