Answer:

Technically, yes. It's called epsilon, which is defined as an infinitely small number. So

 2 + epsilon is the smallest number greater than 2. But for practical purposes no there isn't.

00

Step-by-step explanation:Not without limits. You can always move the .1 one place further from the interring. For example,  

2.1>2.01

and  

2.01>2.001

So, unless there are a limited number of decimal spaces, you can continually add an infinite amount of zeros behind the decimal point, followed by a one.

If you use two or three decimal spaces as a standard in your class, then the smallest decimal greater than 2 would be 2.01 or 2.001, respectively.

What is the perimeter of a square with an area of 120
Snezhnost [94]
If the area is 120, each length is root(120)

root(120) = 2*root(30)

so the perimeter is:

4 * 2 * root(30) = 8 root(30)

which is approximately 43.8
