Math Problem Statement
Approximate square root of, 95, end square root 95 by following the steps below. On the question page below, the start of a sentence has 2 input boxes. Once you have filled both in, the rest of the sentence will be filled in based on your inputs. A "try" button will follow this sentence. When you press the "try" button, if your answers are correct, a number line will appear with a label to move, followed by a "try" button. When you press the "try" button, if your placement is correct, this process will start over again. After you have repeated this process to approximate to 2 decimal places, the answer area will appear with the submit button. square root of, 95, end square root 95 must lie between the whole numbers and
Solution
To approximate the square root of 95, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Find two perfect squares around 95
- The perfect square just below 95 is , because .
- The perfect square just above 95 is , because .
Therefore, the square root of 95 must lie between the whole numbers 9 and 10.
You can input these values into the sentence as:
- "The square root of 95 must lie between the whole numbers 9 and 10."
