How do I import excell data to mathematica and inverse

What it means is that during the calculation there were two complex intermediate results whose imaginary components almost cancelled.

If the calculation were done with exact numbers (Integers and Rationals), the imaginary components would have exactly cancelled.

Use the Chop command.

Or you can use Re to get the real part of the complex number.

When I integrate using the definite integral symbol in conjunction with the N symbol I get a small complex numerical in addition to the correct answer. What does that mean and what action is necessary.

Look up Interpolation and NIntegrate.  Here is an example:
fun = Interpolation[{{0, 0}, {0.1, .3}, {0.5, .6}, {1, -.2}, {2, 3}}]

NIntegrate[fun[x], {x, 0, 2}]
