+40+%3C+n%5E2+%3C+200+

You can guess the solutions pretty easily:
5%5E2+=+25 not a solution
6%5E2+=+36 not a solution
7%5E2+=+49 is a solution
8%5E2+=+64 is a solution
...
etc.
Keep increasing the integer value until its square is 200 or higher.

Keep in mind the "integers" include the addititive inverses (negative numbers) and +n%5E2+%3E+0+ for n<0. Thus, -7, -8, etc. will also be in the set of solutions.

Let INTEGERS be I
Then we get: 40 < I2 < 200
%22+%22+%2B-sqrt%2840%29 < sqrt%28I%5E2%29 < %22+%22%2B-+sqrt%28200%29 ------ Taking square root of each component of compound inequality, while ADDING ±
%22+%22%2B-+6.32455532 < I < %22+%22%2B-+14.14213562
