    Question options:

    A. Yes, Walter is correct.

    B. No 3.612 is less than 13.

    C. No, both 3.612 and 3.622 are greater than

    D. No, both 3.612 and 3.622 are less than 13

    Answer:

    C. No, both 3.612 and 3.622 are greater than the square root of 13

    Explanation:

    13 is a prime number and must have a decimal number as its square root and so the square root should be between √9 and √16

    Using the Newton Raphson method to estimate the square root of 13 with the formula: ai +1= ai²+n/2ai

    We get square root of 13 = 3.6055512

    This is the same result we get using a calculator to calculate square root of 13= 3.6055512

    So yes Walter is not correct
