Answer:
See attachment
Step-by-step explanation:
put in an positive number for x and check
2 - 5 = -3
5 - 2 = 3
- 2 + 5 = 3
5 + (-2) = 2
so the only different one is the first
So, The dots represent the children.
And the numbers represent the length in.
I wouldnt say its D.
I would say its C. Group B, because 4 kids have forearm length longer then 13 in.
Answer:
so whats the question
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
