Let Morgan = X

Then Mary = 5X ( 5 times as old).


The sum is 72, so 5x +x = 72

5x +x = 6x:

6x = 72

Divide both sides by 6:

x = 72 / 6

x = 12

Morgan is 12 years old.

Mary is 5(12) = 60 years old.

The square root of 83 can be platted on the number line below
wel
The answer is some number between 9 and 10.
Explanation:
√83
is an irrational number. You won't be able to simplify it any further either, since it doesn't have any perfect square factors.
However, you will be able to tell between which two numbers it lies in.
9^2 is 81 and 10^2 is 100
. Therefore, you can say that a certain number between 9 and 10 is 83 when squared.
If you're looking for an exact answer, then it will be 9.11043357914... (I got that using a calculator).
