Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex] > 8.9860...
Step-by-step explanation:
Allow me to rewrite your question for a better understanding:
Select from the drop-down menu to correctly compare the numbers. [tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex] and 8.9860...
My answer:
[tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{81 + 4}[/tex] > [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex]
as we know that: [tex]\sqrt{81} = 9[/tex] > 8.9860...
So apparently, [tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex] > 8.9860...
Hope it will find you well.
