Why is there no solution to the square root of -169?

The answer is an imaginary number, because of the negative under the square root. The same number multiplied together will always be a positive number. For example, if you square negative one, the answer is positive one, because a negative times a negative is a positive. Because a square root undoes a square, there is no solution to the square root of a negative number. That's why your calculator could not compute this problem. However, there is a way to solve these types of problems by using imaginary numbers. The answer is 13i, where i is the square root of negative one.


How do you compute the standard error in refractive index from your graph?

To compute the standard error in refractive index from a graph, calculate the standard deviation of the data points and divide it by the square root of the sample size. This will give you the standard error in your refractive index measurement.

How many square feet in 472000000 cubic feet?

To find the number of square feet in 472,000,000 cubic feet, we need to know the dimensions of the area in question. If the area is a square, then you can take the square root of the volume. However, if it's a cube, you can take the cube root to find the side length and then square that to find the area in square feet.
