Answer 1

To evaluate the expression \( \sqrt{19} - 32 \):

1. \( \sqrt{19} \) is an irrational number because 19 is not a perfect square.
2. When you subtract 32 (which is an integer) from an irrational number, the result remains irrational.

Therefore, the result of the expression \( \sqrt{19} - 32 \) is:

an irrational number.
