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.

A regular tube of toothpaste costs $2.50 for 3.2 ounces. A travel size tube costs $1.00 for 1.2 ounces. Compare the prices and w
Len [333]

Answer:

The travel size costs 6 ​% as much as the regular size. Thus the regular size would be more economical and thus a better buy

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

<em>Find out the unit rate of a regular  tube of toothpaste</em>

we know that

To find out the unit rate, divide the total cost by the total weight

so

\frac{2.50}{3.2}=\$0.78\ per\ ounce

step 2

<em>Find out the unit rate of a travel size tube of toothpaste</em>

we know that

To find out the unit rate, divide the total cost by the total weight

so

\frac{1.00}{1.2}=\$0.83\ per\ ounce

step 3

Find out the percent of increase

we have that

The unit rate \$0.83\ per\ ounce represent the 100%

so by proportion

Find out what percentage represent the difference ($0.83-$0.78=$0.05 per ounce)

\frac{0.83}{100\%}=\frac{0.05}{x}\\\\x=100(0.05)/0.83\\\\x=6\%

therefore

The travel size costs 6 ​% as much as the regular size. Thus the regular size would be more economical and thus a better buy
