A tree is 17 feet tall. The wire runs from the top of the tree to 8.7 feet from its base. The wire is Square root 338 feet long. Estimate the length of the wire to the nearest hundredth of a foot.

18.38 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to solve the expression √338, which is the length of the wire.

Mathematically speaking:

√338 = 18.3847 feet  

Since the number after the hundredths place is less than 5:

Length of the wire: 18.34 feet (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
