OpenStudy (pokemon23):

\[\sqrt{18}\]

OpenStudy (nottim):

I dunno.

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

approximate each square root to the nearest hundredth. \[\sqrt{28}\]

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

to the nearest tenth so its like 19?

OpenStudy (nottim):

18.1?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Tenth, not whole number.

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

so 18.0

OpenStudy (nottim):

What about .06?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Does it not round up the 0?

OpenStudy (nottim):

Hermmm.

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

so what do you round it up to?

OpenStudy (nottim):

To the tenth place.

OpenStudy (nottim):

No? In 0.1, "1" is in the tenth place.

OpenStudy (across):

\[\sqrt{18}\approx4.2426406871192851464050661726291\]

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

how do you round that off to the nearest tenths

OpenStudy (across):

4.2

OpenStudy (nottim):

1.2- 2 is in the tenth place.

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

so for 28 to the nearest hundredths \[\approx\]11.3137085

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

11.30

OpenStudy (across):

no

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

;'(

OpenStudy (across):

\[\sqrt{28}\approx5.2915026221291811810032315072785\]

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

by accident I wrote 128 XD so you round the off to the nearest hundredths and get 5.30

OpenStudy (across):

that's rounding to the nearest tenth

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

5.29?

OpenStudy (across):

yup!

OpenStudy (pokemon23):
