Why does a negative underneath a radical create a "no solution" answer in math?

• Negative numbers can be simplified to positive under a radical.

• Radicals with negatives are always solvable in the real number system.

• Because you cannot multiply the same number to get a negative answer, you will end up with positive every time.

Answer explanation

A negative under a radical leads to no solution in the real number system because no real number squared gives a negative result. Thus, the only outcomes from squaring are positive or zero.

• 11

• -11

• -10

• -12

Answer explanation

To solve -√121, we first find √121, which is 11. The negative sign in front indicates we take the negative value, resulting in -11. Therefore, the correct answer is -11.
