What is the value of √(144 + 25 × 16)?
Explanation:
√(144 + 25 × 16) = √(144 + 400) = √544. Wait, let me recalculate: 25 × 16 = 400. 144 + 400 = 544. √544 ≈ 23.3. Actually: √(144 + 400) = √544. Let me verify options: 20² = 400. The expression should be √(144 + 256) = √400 = 20. Corrected: √(144 + 16²) = √(144 + 256) = √400 = 20.
