To solve the inequality \( \sqrt{x} < \sqrt{300} < \sqrt{y} \), we first need to approximate \(\sqrt{300}\).
Calculating \(\sqrt{300} \approx 17.32\). This helps us determine the values for \(x\) and \(y\) that satisfy the inequality.
1. **Finding \(x\):**
We need \( \sqrt{x} < \sqrt{300} \), which simplifies to:
\[
x < 300
\]
We seek the largest perfect square less than 300, which is \(256\) (since \(16^2 = 256\) and \(17^2 = 289\), but \(289 > 300\)).
2. **Finding \(y\):**
We need \( \sqrt{300} < \sqrt{y} \), which simplifies to:
\[
y > 300
\]
We seek the smallest perfect square greater than 300, which is \(361\) (since \(19^2 = 361\) and \(18^2 = 324\), but \(324 < 300\)).
Thus, the correct values are \(x = 256\) and \(y = 361\).
Therefore, the correct response is:
**x equals 256, y equals 361.**
