Step-by-step explanation:
Square roots have a neat property:
provided <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are positive real numbers.
This property is what's behind simplifying square roots. You look for perfect square factors (4, 9, 16, 25, 36, ...) inside the square root sign.
Example:
.
In this problem, both factors are perfect squares.

Answer:
1, I have attached the number line.
2, I have provided two examples. One shows a different any quality symbol, and the other one shows the same based on absolute values.
3, you can see using the number line that -0.5 is the closest to zero.
The instructor wants the profit to be positive, so
f(n) > 0
70n -400 > 0
n - 400/70 > 0
n > 5 5/7
The instructor must enroll at least 6 students to make a profit.
