1 answer

a) This number set contains the square root of 25, which is 5, the number 9, and the square root of 64, which is 8. Therefore, the correct description would be: "The number set contains the numbers 5, 9, and 8."

b) This number set contains the numbers -2.4, 0, 3.1, and square root of 81, which is 9. Therefore, the correct description would be: "The number set contains the numbers -2.4, 0, 3.1, and 9."

c) This number set contains the numbers -23, 79, and π/2. Therefore, the correct description would be: "The number set contains the numbers -23, 79, and π/2."

d) This number set contains the square root of 12, which is approximately 3.46, the square root of 11, which is approximately 3.32, and π. Therefore, the correct description would be: "The number set contains the numbers approximately 3.46, approximately 3.32, and π."
