Estimating the Value of Irrational Expressions iG THE IDEA You can approximate the values of irrational numbers by identifying nearby rational numbers on a number line. o For example, the irrational number 1.28437... s between 1 and 2 ona number line. Since it is closer to 1, a close approximation for 1.28437... is 1. Ifyou look at the tenths place, you can get an even closer approximation. The number 1.28437... is also between 1.2 and 1.3. Since itis closer to 1.3, a closer approximation for 1.28437... is the rational number 1.3. 1.28437... 4 + +—++ + + + t + + a 1 a) 1.2 1.3 14 15 16 17 18 19 2 Example 1 Locate 3.9, ~23, 1.69, and —VI6 on a number line.

Example 2 Locate —, V5, and 0.582083... ona number ine. Strategy Estimate a rational approximation for each irrational number, and plot the rational numbers on a number line. Step1 Approximate the value of a to the nearest tenth Since = 3.14158..., itis between 3.1 and 3.2. Itis closer to 3.1, so close approximation for m to the nearest tenth is 3.1 Therefore, a rational approximation for — is ~3.1. Step 2 Approximate the value of V5 to the nearest tenth. Since 5 is not a perfect square, first determine the perfect square closest to 5. The firs five perfect squares are 1, 4, 9, 16, and 25. The perfect square closest to 5 is 4. So, a close approximation for VS is V4 = 2. For a closer approximation, square decimals to the tenths place that are close to 2, and compare the squares to 5. 2.7 = 4.41, so V4.4T = 2.1 4.84, so V4.84 = 2.2 .29, 80 V5.29 = 2.3 a1 Since 5 is closest to 4.84, an approximation of V5 to the tenths place is 2.2. Step3 Approximate the value of 0.582083... to the nearest tenth. 0.582083... rounds to 0.6. Step 4 Make a lst ofall ofthe decimal approximations. -m=-3.1 Y5~2.2 0.582083... = 0.6 Step 5 _Drawanumber line. Plot 2 point corresponding to each decimal. Label the points with the original numbers. 0.582088... a ae Solution — Onanumber line, —7is located slightly to the left of 3, V5 is located slightly to the right of 2, and 0.582083... is located slightly to the right of 0.5.

Example 3 Order from least to greatest: 2m, &, 23, and 4.1. Strategy Write each as a decimal, using a decimal approximation for irrational numbers. Then plot the decimals on a number line. Step] Write 2s a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth. w= 3.14158..., so-mis about 3.1. Therefore, rounded to the nearest tenth, 27r is epproximately 23.1), or 6.2. Step2_ Write-2.as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth B=8+15=053 Rounded to the nearest tenth, is 0.5. Step 3 Write 2V3 as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth. Since 3 is not a perfect square, frst determine the nearest perfect squares. P=1sov=1 2 =4,sov4=2 Since 3 is closer to 4 than to 1, a close approximation for V3 is 2. For a closer approximation, square decimals to the tenths place, and compare them to 3 1.7? = 2.89, so Y2.89 = 1.7 1.8° = 3.24, so V3.24 = 1.8 Since 3 is closer to 2.89, a closer approximation of V3 is 1.7. Aclose approximation of 2V3 is therefore approximately 2(1.7), or 3.4.

Trminute’ OF 0-7 ‘When the equation of a proportional relationship is written in the form y= mx, the slope of the relationship is the value of m. The slope can be used to identify the unit rate. Example 2 Allyson mows lawns to make extra money. The equation 30x ~ 2y = O compares the amount of money Allyson earns, y, to the number of lawns she mows, x. How much does Allyson eatn for each lawn she mows? Strategy Find the unit rate by rewriting the equation in the form y = mx. Step1) Use the properties of equality to solve for y. 30x -2y=0 30x 2y+2y=O0+2y Add 2y to both sides, 30 Divide both sides by 2 15x=y Step2 Determine the slope of the equation. The value of m in the equation y = mxis the slope. Inthe equation 15x = y, the value of m is 15, so the slope is 15. Step3 Use the slope to write the unit rate. The y-coordinates represent the amount of money Allyson earns, The x Compare the unit rates.

Lesson & Relating Slope and y-Intercept to Linear Equations TTING THE IDEA An equation sa linear equation when all ofits points lie on aline. When a line passes through the origin, the equation ofthe line can be writen in the form y= mx, where m represents the slope ofthe line. Recall that the slope of the line is the change in the y-coordinates divided by the change in the xcoordinates. The slope of a line can be positive or negative. Positive Slope Negative Slope y= 2x You can use similar triangles to show that the slope of a non-vertical line is the same between any two points on the line. ‘Geometric figures are simitar when they are the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
