QuestionUse a calculator to approximate the square root. Check to see that the approximation is reasonable. (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.)
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. We need to approximate the square root of .
2. The approximation should be rounded to the nearest thousandth.
STEP 2
1. Use a calculator to find the square root.
2. Round the result to the nearest thousandth.
3. Verify the approximation is reasonable.
STEP 3
Use a calculator to find .
STEP 4
The calculator gives .
STEP 5
Round to the nearest thousandth.
STEP 6
Verify the approximation by squaring to check if it is close to .
Since is close to , the approximation is reasonable.
The approximation of rounded to the nearest thousandth is:
