Question 3. Hana works out an estimate for √250 Her working is 250 ÷ 2 = 125 Hana says that an estimate for √250 is 125 Is Hana correct? You must give a reason.
Estimating Roots▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- B1: No
- B1: 15² = 225 and 16² = 256, so the root is between 15 and 16
Answer: No. 15² = 225 and 16² = 256, so √250 is between 15 and 16[2 marks] - 4
Question 4. The intensity I of light from a lamp is inversely proportional to the square of the distance d metres from the lamp.
