What type of number will result from the expression 19−−√−32?(1 point) Responses a whole number a whole number an integer an integer a rational number a rational number an irrational number

1 answer

To evaluate the expression \( \sqrt{19} - 32 \), we first need to consider the values of each component:

  1. \( \sqrt{19} \) is an irrational number because 19 is not a perfect square.
  2. Subtracting 32 (which is a whole number and hence rational) from an irrational number results in an irrational number.

Therefore, the expression \( \sqrt{19} - 32 \) results in an irrational number.

So the correct response is: an irrational number.
