9.1 Radical Expressions and Graphs
Finding Roots
Because the radicand, 25, is positive, there are two square roots, –5 and 5. The principal root is 5.
Here, we want the negative square root, –5.
The index is even and the radicand is negative, so this is not a real number.
The index is odd, so the root is –4 since (–4)3 = –64.
