Write the expression as a complex number in the form a + bi.
-$\sqrt { - 2 } - \sqrt { - 169 }$
A) $0 + ( \sqrt { 2 } + 13 ) \mathrm { i }$
B) $13 + \sqrt { 2 } i$
C) $0 + ( \sqrt { 2 } - 13 ) \mathrm { i }$
D) $- 13 + \sqrt { 2 } i$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The expression simplifies to $0 + (\sqrt{2} - 13)i$ because $\sqrt{-2} = \sqrt{2}i$ and $\sqrt{-169} = 13i$, leading to the subtraction of the two imaginary numbers.
