Which of the following is an irrational number between 5 and 7: 6–√, 12−−√, 27−−√, 36−−√?(1 point)
Answers:
1. 27
2. ?
3. 2 1/8
4. 4.2
5. 10
The irrational number between 5 and 7 is 6–√.
To determine which of the following options is an irrational number between 5 and 7, we need to identify if any of them are non-repeating and non-terminating decimals.
Let's analyze each option:
1. 27: This is not a number between 5 and 7.
2. ?: This option is not provided, so we cannot determine if it is an irrational number.
3. 2 1/8: This is a mixed number and can be written as a rational number.
4. 4.2: This is a decimal, but it is not non-repeating and non-terminating. Therefore, it is a rational number.
5. 10: This is not a number between 5 and 7.
None of the given options satisfy the criteria of being an irrational number between 5 and 7. Therefore, the correct answer is not provided in the given options.
