To determine which number is represented by point P, we need to identify the approximate values of each number in the list:

  1. √7 (sqrt of 7): The square root of 7 is approximately 2.64575.
  2. 2.1̅ (2.1 repeating): The decimal 2.1 repeating (2.11111...) is equal to \(2.1\overline{1} = \frac{21}{10} = 2.1\).
  3. π/2 (pi over 2): π is approximately 3.14159, so π/2 is approximately 1.5708.
  4. √23 (sqrt of 23): The square root of 23 is approximately 4.79583.

Based on these approximations, we can compare the values to determine which one point P represents.

If you can provide more context about the location of point P on the number line, I would be able to help you identify which of these values corresponds to point P.

less words

Sure! Here are the approximate values:

  1. √7 ≈ 2.65
  2. 2.1̅ = 2.111...
  3. π/2 ≈ 1.57
  4. √23 ≈ 4.80

If you give me the position of point P, I can identify which number it represents.

close to five

If point P is close to five, then it is likely representing √23 (approximately 4.80).
