Answer:
12√5
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the attached sketch, there are 2 triangles which we need to focus on, triangle A (in yellow) and triangle B (In red).
If you look at triangle A, we notice that X is the hypotenuse of triangle A. This means that X must be the largest length in triangle A, hence we can say that x must be greater than 24 (or 24 < x)
Now look at triangle B, in this case, they hypotenuse is 30 and x is the length of one of the sides. This means that x must be shorter than the hypotenuse (i.e x < 30)
from the 2 paragraphs above, we can see now that we can assemble an inequality in x
24 < x < 30
If we look at the choices, we can immediately ignore 33 because x must be less than 30,
working out the choices, we find that the only choice which falls into the range 24<x<30 is the 2nd choice 12√5 (= 26.83) (which is the answer)
The last 2 choices give values smaller than 24 and are hence cannot be the answer

The value of the voltage is 18 - j volts if the current in a circuit is 3 + j2 amps and the resistance is 4 - j3 ohms option (c) is correct.
<h3>What is a complex number?</h3>
It is defined as the number which can be written as x+iy where x is the real number or real part of the complex number and y is the imaginary part of the complex number and i is the iota which is nothing but a square root of -1.
We have:
The current in a circuit is 3 + j2 amps and the resistance is 4 - j3 ohms.
As we know,
V = IR
V = (3 + j2)(4 - j3)
j² = -1 (complex part)
After simplification:
V = 18 - j volts
Thus, the value of the voltage is 18 - j volts if the current in a circuit is 3 + j2 amps and the resistance is 4 - j3 ohms option (c) is correct.
