3. Consider the expressions sq root of 15, sq root of 97 and sq root of 40 Locate the approximate value of each on a number line.

Then, estimate each square root to the nearest tenth.

Square root of 15

√ 15 = 3.9 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Square root of 97

√97 = 9.9 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Square root of 40

√40 = 6.3 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Square root of 15

√ 15 = 3.9 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Square root of 97

√97 = 9.9 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Square root of 40

√40 = 6.3 (Rounding to the nearest tenth)

Location on a number line

√ 15, between + 3 and + 4, very close to + 4

√40, between + 6 and + 7, close to + 6

√97, between + 9 and + 10, very close to + 10
