Given location:


\sqrt[]{62}

To find the point that approximates the given location, we should write the surd as a decimal.


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{62}\text{ = 7.87 } \\ \approx\text{ 7.9} \end{gathered}

7.9 is less than 8. Hence, we can conclude that the point that best approximates the given location is the point A

Answer:

Point A (Option A)
