Decide whether each statement is true or false. The solution set of 2x+5=x -3 is {-8}.
Ch. 1 - Equations and Inequalities

2장, 문제 6a
Decide whether each statement is true or false. If false, correct the right side of the equation. √-25 = 5i
검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall that the square root of a negative number can be expressed using the imaginary unit \(i\), where \(i = \sqrt{-1}\).
Rewrite the expression \(\sqrt{-25}\) as \(\sqrt{25 \times -1}\), which can be separated into \(\sqrt{25} \times \sqrt{-1}\).
Calculate \(\sqrt{25}\), which is 5, and recognize that \(\sqrt{-1} = i\).
Combine these results to express \(\sqrt{-25}\) as \$5i$.
Conclude that the statement \(\sqrt{-25} = 5i\) is true.

Imaginary Numbers and the Imaginary Unit
Imaginary numbers extend the real number system by including the imaginary unit 'i', defined as the square root of -1. This allows for the square roots of negative numbers to be expressed in terms of 'i', such as √-25 = 5i, where 5 is the positive real number and 'i' represents the imaginary part.

Square Roots of Negative Numbers
The square root of a negative number is not a real number but an imaginary number. To find it, factor out the negative sign as √-a = √(-1) * √a = i√a, where 'a' is a positive real number. For example, √-25 = i√25 = 5i.

Evaluating and Correcting Equations Involving Imaginary Numbers
When evaluating equations with imaginary numbers, it is important to verify the equality by correctly applying the properties of 'i'. If an equation is false, identify the mistake and rewrite the right side correctly, ensuring the imaginary unit is properly included and the real part is accurate.
