Answer:
Nolan correctly identified the square numbers before and after 18.
The square roots of them are 4 and 5.
Clearly, square root of 18 should lie between 4 and 5 only.
He, then carefully squared 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 etc. and identified that 4.3 squared is nearer to 18.
Since, Nolan is finding estimated square root, his steps are cool and he didn't make any error.
Answer:
I will use "complete-the-square" approach if thats ok
first 0.5(x - 2)² - 2
second -2(x - 4)² + 8
Answer:
$0.40 per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide 6.40 by 16 to get 0.40.
To fact check this, I multiplied 0.40 by 16 and got 6.40.
The number is (2√3) / 3
To find the missing number, convert what it says in words to an equation:

Divide both sides by 15:

Take the square root:
*Since each card is worth -50 points, you need to remember that a positive times a negative integer gives you a negative integer.*
Part A) Theresa has 5 cards so: 5 x -50 = -250
Theresa has -250 points.
Part B) Mark has 8 cards so: 8 x -50 = -400
Mark has -400 points.
Part C) Theresa has more points because -250 is closer to 0 on a number line.
