Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
14. We can represent 1 as √1 and 2 as √4 and because 1 < 3 < 4, we know that √3 is in between 1 and 2. However, 3 is closer to 4 than it is to 1 so √3 is about 2.
15. Again, 3 is √9 and 4 is √16. 9 < 10 < 16 so √10 is in between 3 and 4, however, since 10 is closer to 9 as it is to 16, we know that √10 is about 3.
16. -4 = -√16 and -5 = -√25, since 16 < 22 < 25, we know that -√22 is in between -4 and -5 but 22 is closer to 25 so the answer is -5.
17. -10 = -√100 and -11 = -√121 so -√120 is in between -10 and -11. Since 120 is closer to 121, the answer is -11.

One question at a time, please. I will focus on #16 and ignore #18.
slope: 3/4 line passes thru (-8,2)
Write out y = mx + b. Subst. 2 for y. Subst. -8 for x Subst. (3/4) for m:
2 = (3/4)(-8) + b. Find b. 2 = -6 + b => b = 8
So your equation is y = (3/4)x + 8. Please, use ( ) around those fractions!
We are given the height of Joe which is 1.6 meters, the length of his shadow is 2 meters when he stands 3 meters from the base of the floodlight.
First, we have to illustrate the problem. Then we can observe two right triangles formed, one is using Joe and the length of the shadow, the other is the floodlight and the sum of the distance from the base plus the length of the shadow. To determine the height of the floodlight, use ratio and proportion:
1.6 / 2 = x / (2 +3)
where x is the height of the flood light
solve for x, x = 4. Therefore, the height of the floodlight is 4 meters.
