The diagonal of a square equals 2–√ times the side length. Using 1.4 for the square root of 2, what is the approximate length in feet from one corner to an opposite corner of a square park that is 700 feet on a side?(1 point)

To find the length from one corner to the opposite corner of a square park, we can use the formula mentioned:

diagonal = (2 - √2) * side length

Given that the side length of the square park is 700 feet, we can substitute this value into the formula:

diagonal = (2 - √2) * 700

Now, let's substitute √2 as 1.4:

diagonal = (2 - 1.4) * 700
diagonal = (0.6) * 700
diagonal = 420

Therefore, the approximate length from one corner to an opposite corner of the square park is 420 feet.

The height of an equilateral triangle equals √3/2 times the side length. Using 7/4 for the square root of 3, what is the approximate height in meters of an equilateral triangle with a side length of 8 meters?(1 point)

To find the height of an equilateral triangle, we can use the formula mentioned:

height = (√3/2) * side length

Given that the side length of the equilateral triangle is 8 meters, we can substitute this value into the formula:

height = (√3/2) * 8

Now, let's substitute √3 as 7/4:

height = (7/4 * 8) / 2
height = (14/4) * 8 / 2
height = (14 * 8) / (4 * 2)
height = 112 / 8
height = 14

Therefore, the approximate height of the equilateral triangle is 14 meters.

Using a number line, what whole number and rational number to the nearest half is √40 between

To identify the whole number and rational number to the nearest half that √40 lies between, let's calculate the square root of 40 to determine its approximate value:

√40 ≈ 6.324

Now, let's consider the nearest whole number and its respective halves:

5 and 5.5

Since √40 is approximately 6.324, it lies between the whole number 6 and the rational number 6.5 (which is the nearest half).

Therefore, √40 is between 6 and 6.5 on the number line.

Using a number line, what whole number and rational number to the nearest half is 58−−√ between?(1 point)

To find the whole number and rational number to the nearest half that √58 lies between, let's calculate the square root of 58 to determine its approximate value:

√58 ≈ 7.616

Now, let's consider the nearest whole number and its respective halves:

7 and 7.5

Since √58 is approximately 7.616, it lies between the whole number 7 and the rational number 7.5 (which is the nearest half).

Therefore, √58 is between 7 and 7.5 on the number line.

Using rational approximations, what is an inequality statement comparing √81 and √88? Enter <, >, or =.(1 point)

To compare the square root of 81 (√81) and the square root of 88 (√88) using rational approximations, let's calculate their approximate values:

√81 = 9

√88 ≈ 9.380

Therefore, the inequality statement is:

√81 < √88

Express 8/11 as a repeating decimal. Mark the cycle of repeating digits with a bar.(1 point)

To express 8/11 as a repeating decimal, we perform long division:

```
0.72
----------
11| 8.00
77
----
30
22
----
80
77
----
30
22
----
80
77
----
30
```

The remainder repeats after the division, which means the decimal representation of 8/11 is 0.72 with a repeating cycle of 72. So, we can write it as:

8/11 = 0.72̅

Convert 0.72¯¯¯¯¯ to a rational number in simplest form.(1 point)

To convert the repeating decimal 0.72̅ to a rational number, we can set it up as a fraction and solve for it.

Let's represent the repeating decimal as variable x:

x = 0.727272...

Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 to shift the repeating part to the left side of the decimal point:

100x = 72.727272...

Subtract the original equation from the equation multiplied by 100:

100x - x = 72.727272... - 0.727272...

99x = 72

Divide both sides of the equation by 99:

x = 72/99

We can simplify this fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, which is 9:

x = (72/9) / (99/9)
x = 8/11

Therefore, the rational representation of 0.72̅ is 8/11.

What is a rational number with a denominator of 7 that is between √7 and √8. Write your answer as an improper fraction.(1 point)

To find a rational number with a denominator of 7 between √7 and √8, we can consider the fractions with a denominator of 7 and test their values in comparison to √7 and √8.

Let's start with the fraction 1/7 and compare:

√7 ≈ 2.645
√8 ≈ 2.828

1/7 ≈ 0.142

Since 0.142 is less than √7, we can try the next fraction, 2/7:

2/7 ≈ 0.285

Still, 0.285 is less than √7. So, we can proceed to the next fraction, 3/7:

3/7 ≈ 0.428

Now, 0.428 is greater than √7 but less than √8. Therefore, the rational number with a denominator of 7 that lies between √7 and √8 as an improper fraction is:

3/7
