Four students work to find an estimate for square root of 37. Who is closest to finding the true estimate?
A. Ricardo: 6
B. Rhonda: 5
C: Riley: 7
D: Ryan: 8
My answer is either Ricardo or Riley. I'm thinking Riley
I think maybe Rhonda
wow bob parsley is kind of a d!ckhead
So, Riley?
Nope again.
then what is it
Soo what is it
To determine which student is closest to finding the true estimate for the square root of 37, we need to calculate the actual square root of 37 and compare it with the estimates given by each student.
The square root of 37 is approximately 6.0828.
Let's calculate the differences between the actual square root and the estimates:
- Ricardo's estimate is 6, so the difference is |6 - 6.0828| = 0.0828.
- Rhonda's estimate is 5, so the difference is |5 - 6.0828| = 1.0828.
- Riley's estimate is 7, so the difference is |7 - 6.0828| = 0.9172.
- Ryan's estimate is 8, so the difference is |8 - 6.0828| = 1.9172.
Now, we can see that the smallest difference is 0.0828, which is the difference between Ricardo's estimate and the actual square root of 37. Therefore, Ricardo is closest to finding the true estimate.
