Question 86904: Good day to everyone,I need some help with some square root problems,sorry but I don't have the square root symbol on my computer,but the problems I'm sending have the square roots over them,the first one is,If x=(square root symbol over)0.04,what is the value of x?The next one is,Estimate the value of the square root:(square root symbol over)0.85.And that's about it,thanks for anyone that can help.
Answer by Nate(3500)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = sqrt(0.04)
x = sqrt(4*10^-2)
x = 2*sqrt(1/100)
x = 2(1/10) = 1/5
~
sqrt(0.85)
sqrt(85*10^-2)
sqrt(5*17/100)
sqrt(85)/10
sqrt(85) is between 9 and 10 ... closer to 9
~> 9.2/10 = about 0.92
