To find the whole number and the rational number to the nearest half that \(\sqrt{40}\) is between, let's first calculate the approximate value of \(\sqrt{40}\).

\[
\sqrt{40} \approx 6.32
\]

Now let's determine the whole numbers it lies between. Since \(6.32\) is greater than \(6\) and less than \(7\), we can identify that:

\(\sqrt{40}\) is between **6** and **7**.

Next, let's round \(\sqrt{40}\) to the nearest half. The nearest halves surrounding \(6.32\) are \(6.0\) and \(6.5\). Since \(6.32\) is closer to \(6.5\) than \(6.0\), we can conclude that:

\(\sqrt{40}\) rounded to the nearest half is approximately **6.5**.

Putting this together, we can conclude:

\(\sqrt{40}\) is between **6** and **7**, and rounded to the nearest half, it is approximately **6.5**.

To determine the whole number and the rational number to the nearest half that \(\sqrt{58}\) is between, we first need to calculate the approximate value of \(\sqrt{58}\).

Calculating the square root:

\[
\sqrt{58} \approx 7.62
\]

Now let's see between which whole numbers \(\sqrt{58}\) lies. Since \(7.62\) is greater than \(7\) but less than \(8\), we can confirm that:

\(\sqrt{58}\) is between **7** and **8**.

Next, let's round \(\sqrt{58}\) to the nearest half. The nearest halves surrounding \(7.62\) are \(7.5\) and \(8.0\). Since \(7.62\) is closer to \(7.5\) than to \(8.0\), we see that it approximates to:

\(\sqrt{58}\) is approximately **7.5** when rounded to the nearest half.

Now let's match this information with the options provided:

A) between 8 and 8.5
B) between 7 and 7.5
C) between 7 and 7.5
D) between 8.5 and 9

The values of \(\sqrt{58} \approx 7.62\) show that it is closer to \(8\) than to \(7.5\), but because the options are choosing ranges, it should fit into option **C (between 7 and 7.5)** as \(\sqrt{58}\) is approximately \(7.62\) which is indeed more accurately rounded than being above or around \(7.5\).

Final answers:

**Whole number:** between 7 and 8
**Rational number to the nearest half:** approximately 7.5
Thus, the main option to select based on proximity should be **C) between 7 and 7.5**.

To determine the whole number and the rational number to the nearest half that \(\sqrt{58}\) is between, we first estimate the value of \(\sqrt{58}\).

Calculating the square root:

\[
\sqrt{58} \approx 7.62
\]

Now we identify the whole numbers it lies between. Since \(7.62\) is greater than \(7\) but less than \(8\), we conclude that:

\(\sqrt{58}\) is between **7** and **8**.

Next, we round \(\sqrt{58}\) to the nearest half. The nearest halves surrounding \(7.62\) are \(7.5\) and \(8.0\). Since \(7.62\) is closer to \(7.5\) than to \(8.0\), we approximate that:

\(\sqrt{58}\) rounds to **7.5**.

Now let’s evaluate the options based on our calculations:

A) between 8 and 8.5
B) between 7 and 7.5
C) between 7.5 and 8
D) between 8.5 and 9

Since \(7.62\) is greater than \(7.5\) but less than \(8\), it fits into option **C (between 7.5 and 8)**.

### Final Answer:
**Whole number:** Between 7 and 8
**Rational number to the nearest half:** Rounds to \(7.5\)
Thus, the correct option is **C) between 7.5 and 8**.
