Question

Which statement is FALSE?

A. The √52 is between 7 and 8.
B. The √45 is greater than 6.
C. The √83 is between 8 and 9.
D. The √13 is less than 4.

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

The square root of 52 is between 7 and 8. This is true because 7^2 = 49 and 8^2 = 64.

B. The square root of 45 is greater than 6. This is false because the square root of 45 is actually between 6 and 7. (6^2 = 36 and 7^2 = 49)

C. The square root of 83 is between 8 and 9. This is true because 8^2 = 64 and 9^2 = 81.

D. The square root of 13 is less than 4. This is true because 4^2 = 16 and 3^2 = 9.

So, the false statement is B. The square root of 45 is greater than 6.
