On a number line, between which two consecutive whole numbers would the square root of 277 be located

9514 1404 393

  16 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

16² = 256

(√277)² = 277

17² = 289

The root of 277 is between 16 and 17.

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
