Math Problem Statement
Find the square roots then plot the given irrational numbers on the number line.
Find the square roots then plot the given irrational numbers on the number line.
Solution
Let's calculate the square roots of the given numbers and determine approximately where they should be placed on the number lines:
1.
- This will be slightly before 9 on the number line.
2.
- This falls slightly before 6.
3.
- This is also just before 9.
4.
- This will be very close to 10.
5.
- This is placed just before 3.
Now, place these points appropriately on the number lines.
- For , mark around 8.8.
- For , mark around 5.8.
- For , mark around 8.7.
- For , mark around 9.8.
- For , mark around 2.8.
