X + y = 47
x = 2y + 2

2y + 2 + y = 47
3y + 2 = 47
3y = 47 - 2
3y = 45
y = 45/3
y = 15

x = 2y + 2
x = 2(15) + 2
x = 30 + 2
x = 32

ur numbers are 15 and 32

To find 5, Beau found 22 = 4 and 32 = 9. He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, 5 is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estim

Complete question

To find \sqrt{5} , Beau found 2^2 = 4 and 3^2 = 9 . He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, \sqrt{5}, is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estimate for \sqrt{5} , is \frac{2 + 3}{2} =  2.5 Is his estimate high or low? How do you know?

Answer:

The estimation is high because 5 is very close to 4 so \sqrt{5} will also be very close to \sqrt{4} 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

2.1^2 =  4.41

     2.2^2 =  4.84

      2.3^2 =  5.29

From here we can see that \sqrt{5}  lies between 2.2 and 2.3 but is closer to  2.2

So a good estimate for \sqrt{5} is 2.2
