Complete question
To find 
, Beau found 
and 
. He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, , is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estimate for , is 
Is his estimate high or low? How do you know?
Answer:
The estimation is high because 5 is very close to 4 so will also be very close to 
which is lower than the estimate
In order to get a good estimate
The first step is to choose a number between 2 and 3 let say 2.8 , 2,85 , 2.9 and the square them
i.e
From here we can see that lies between 2.2 and 2.3 but is closer to 2.2
So a good estimate for is 2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -6/5
y =7/5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + y = - 1
x - 2y = - 4
Multiply the first equation by 2 so we can eliminate y
2(2x + y = - 1)
4x + 2y = -2
Add this to the second equation
4x + 2y = -2
x - 2y = - 4
---------------------
5x + 0y = -6
Divide by 5
5x/5 = -6/5
x = -6/5
Multiply the second equation by -2 so we can eliminate x
-2(x - 2y = - 4)
-2x+4y = 8
Add this to the first equation
2x + y = - 1
-2x+4y = 8
---------------------
0x + 5y = 7
Divide by 5
5y/5 = 7/5
y =7/5
8-(8+48) = -48 then divide that by 8 and you get -6 as your result
