D.61 & 63
C. 8 & 9
Wow, just Wow!!! How could the both miss this easy one.
√49 = 7 and √64 = 8, so clear √62 lies between 7 and 8
To determine which two integers √62 is between on the number line, let's find the two integers by calculating the square root of 62.
To find the square root of 62, you can use a calculator or a math software.
Once you have the result, you can compare it with the given options to find the closest pair of integers that √62 falls between.
Calculating the square root of 62 using a calculator or math software, we get:
√62 ≈ 7.874
Now, comparing the result to the given options:
A. 31 & 32: √62 is smaller than both of these values.
B. 7 & 8: √62 falls between these two integers.
C. 8 & 9: √62 is larger than both of these values.
D. 61 & 63: √62 is much smaller than both of these values.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. √62 is between 7 and 8 on the number line.
