5. First, decide if the following number is a perfect square. If it IS, then identify the square root for the expression. √16

No, it is not a perfect square.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 2.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 4.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 8.

6. First, decide if the following number is a perfect square. If it IS, then identify the square root for the expression. √121

No, it is not a perfect square.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 11.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 12.

Yes, it is a perfect square, and the square root is 13.

The number 121 is a perfect square because it can be expressed as the square of an integer (11 x 11 = 121). Therefore, the square root of 121 is 11.

Explanation

The number 121 is a perfect square because it can be expressed as the square of an integer (11 x 11 = 121). Therefore, the square root of 121 is 11.

7. √111 falls between the square root of which 2 numbers? (The square root chart that you got in class will really help to answer this question!)

8 and 9, and it is approximately 8.6

9 and 10, and it is approximately 9.7

10 and 11, and it is approximately 10.5

11 and 12, and it is approximately 11.1

The square root of 111 falls between the square roots of 10 and 11. This can be determined by noting that the square of 10 (100) is less than 111, while the square of 11 (121) is greater than 111. Therefore, the square root of 111 must be between 10 and 11. Additionally, the given answer of approximately 10.5 aligns with this reasoning.

9. √75 falls between the square root of which 2 numbers? (The square root chart that you got in class will really help to answer this question!)

6 and 7, and it is approximately 6.7

7 and 8, and it is approximately 7.4

8 and 9, and it is approximately 8.7

5 and 6, and it is approximately 5.1

The square root of 75 falls between the square root of 8 and 9. This can be determined by finding the square root of each number and comparing them to the square root of 75. The square root of 8 is approximately 2.83, while the square root of 9 is approximately 3. Therefore, the square root of 75 is greater than 2.83 but less than 3. The closest option is 8 and 9, and the approximate value is 8.7.

12. √19 falls between the square root of which 2 numbers?

3 and 4, and it is approximately 3.7

4 and 5, and it is approximately 4.4

5 and 6, and it is approximately 5.3

2 and 3, and it is approximately 2.4

The square root of 19 falls between the square roots of the numbers 4 and 5. This can be determined by calculating the square root of both numbers: the square root of 4 is 2, and the square root of 5 is approximately 2.24. Since 19 is greater than 4 but less than 5, its square root must fall between the square roots of these two numbers. The approximate value of the square root of 19 is 4.4.
