10^-8 would be .000000001 I believe lightning would be the correct answer because .00000001 is bigger than 10^-8 hope this is correct

balu736 [363]

Multiply first equation by -5 and 2nd by 2, add them

15x+20y=-100
<u>2x-20y=32 +</u>

What number does the square root of 82 fall between

Yanka [14]

Listing out a few elements of the set of perfect squares, we get the following values

{1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, ...}

we can stop there because 82 is between 81 and 100

So if x^2 = 82, then x^2 is between 81 and 100 meaning

81 < x^2 < 100

apply the square root to all sides of the compound inequality and we get

9 < x < 10

So the square root of 81 is between 9 and 10

Answer: the value falls between 9 and 10
