The simplest way to answer the questions is to use a calculator (or computer).

sqrt%2865%29-9 = -0.93774 (approximately; with 4 correct decimals);

sqrt%2850%29-8 = -0.92893 (approximately; with 4 correct decimals).

If you want to say "determine it WITHOUT USING a calculator", then change your post appropriately.
