Answer:

C


Step-by-step explanation:

Imaginary Number  [tex]i[/tex] is defined as the square root of [tex]-1[/tex]

We can write:  [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex]


Now, we want to simplify  [tex]\sqrt{-28}[/tex]

We can use the formula [tex]\sqrt{(a)(b)} =\sqrt{a} \sqrt{b}[/tex] to simplify it further:

[tex]\sqrt{-28} \\=\sqrt{(-1)(28)} \\=\sqrt{-1} \sqrt{28}[/tex]

Using the fact that [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex]  ,  we can write:

[tex]i\sqrt{28}[/tex]

This is answer choice C.
