-4 + 21 = 17
Given that the radicand is part of the question, not part of the answer, you can make the radicand whatever you want it to be. However, in any given root sum, for example, sqrt(-4), if the index is even, such as it is in a square root sum, the answer will always be positive. If the index is odd, and the radicand is negative, the answer will also be negative.
The radicand is the value inside the radical symbol.
26 - 21 = 5 or 24 - 23 = 1
