Step-by-step explanation:
"Root 9.8" means the square root of 9.8, [tex]\sqrt{9.8}[/tex].
Since we are being asked to find it on the number line, I am guessing they want us to estimate. We know that the square root of 9, [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex], is equal to 3. Since 9.8 is slightly bigger than 9, the square root of 9.8 will be a little bit over 3.
Want to confirm? Using a calculator for the square root of 9.8 gives us 3.13.
