I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.

What is 2400 hours after 5pm
Art [367]
Given that 24 hours is one full day, we can deduce that 2400 hours is 100 days. One full cycle from that time is equivalent to that time therefore, 2400 hours after 5pm is 5pm.

What is -1.1 repeating as a fraction
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Hey \\ There!

\frac{-1.1}{1} ( \frac{10}{10} )\\ \\ -1.1(10) = -11   \\ \\ 1(10)= 10 \\ \\ \\  Fraction:  \frac{-11}{10} this is also equal to: -1\frac{1}{10}

Your answer would probably be: \frac{-11}{10} =  -1\frac{1}{10}

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
