Answer:

d. the quantity of negative twenty plus sixteen i all over forty one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify the complex number:

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{-16} }{(3-3i)+(1-2i)}[/tex]

We rewrite to obtain:

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{16}\times \sqrt{-1} }{(3+1)+(-3i-2i)}[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]\sqrt{-1}=i[/tex] and  [tex]-1=i^2[/tex]

We simplify to get:

[tex]\frac{4i}{4-5i}[/tex]

We rationalize to get:

[tex]\frac{4i}{4-5i}\times\frac{4+5i}{4+5i} [/tex]

[tex]\frac{4i(4+5i)}{(4-5i)(4+5i)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16i+20i^2}{4^2+5^2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16i-20}{16+25}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-20+16i}{41}[/tex]

The correct answer is D
