Question

The values of the square root of 10 and the square root of 15 are plotted on the number line what is the approximate difference in tenths between the square root of 10 and the square root of 15

Answer 1

The correct option is B) 0.7

Explanation:

Consider the provided number line.

By observing the provided number line it can be concluded that the value of √10 is approximately 3.16. Where 1 is at tenths place.

Now, consider the number √15.

The number √15 is on the right side of √10 that means the value of √15 must be greater than √10.

By observing the provided number line it can be concluded that the value of √15 is approximately 3.87. Where 8 is at tenths place.

Thus the difference of the in tenths between √10 and √15 is 0.7

Therefore, the correct option is B) 0.7
