i<-98 - <98

To simplify the given expressions, let's follow the order of operations.

40.
To simplify the expression 2<-24*(-<-54), we can break it down step by step.

First, let's simplify the part inside the parentheses (-<-54):
-<-54 can be rewritten as -(-54). The two negative signs cancel out, so we get 54.

Now we can substitute this value back into the original expression:
2<-24*(-<-54) becomes 2<-24*(54).

Next, let's simplify the multiplication part (-24*54):
-24 multiplied by 54 equals -1,296.

Now we can substitute this value back into the expression:
2<-1,296.

To simplify this further, we need to determine the square root of 2 and compare it to the value -1,296.

Now we will evaluate the square root of 2 using a calculator or any other method.
√2 ≈ 1.414

Comparing this to -1,296, we can see that 1.414 is smaller than -1,296.

Therefore, the simplified expression is:
2<-1,296.

42.
To simplify the expression i<-98 - <98, we'll need to evaluate the square root and compare values.

Let's break it down step by step.

First, let's evaluate the square root of 98 (√98):
Using a calculator or any other method, √98 ≈ 9.899.

Next, let's substitute this value back into the expression:
i<-98 - 9.899.

To simplify this further, we need to determine the square root of i and compare it to the value 9.899.

Now we will evaluate the square root of i using a calculator or any other method.

It's important to note that there are two complex square roots of -1, namely i and -i. Assuming that we are working with the principal square root, we consider the square root of i to be denoted as √i.

Since we don't have any further information about the specific value of i, we cannot determine its square root value. Therefore, we cannot simplify the expression i<-98 - 9.899 any further without additional information.
