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.
Answer:
A+6+A = 20
A = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
J = number of problems Juana completed
A = number of problems Andy completed
J+A=20
J = A + 6
Replace J with A+6 in the first equation
A+6+A = 20
2A +6 = 20
Subtract 6 from each side
2A +6-6 = 20-6
2A =14
Divide by 2
2A/2 = 14/2
A = 7

Compounded depreciation formula:
A = P(1 - r)ⁿ , where P = original price, r= rate of depreciation, n = number of years and A = actual value (after depreciation):
A= $8000(1 - 11%)⁵ = 8000(0.89)⁵ = 4,467.24 ≈$4,467
3/5 is 0.6
7/8 is 0.875
0.6/0.875 is 0.685714286
0.685714286 is 685714286/1000000000
(not so sure about it but that was what i came up with hope i helped)
