<p>can someone help me solve the following</p>
<p>what is the value of x on the following number line? Each of the 9 intervals is equal. (just used slashes for markings on number line) it goes from 0 to 1 </p>
<p>0 | | | | | (sqrt of x) | | 1</p>
<p>sorry if it looks confusing =/</p>
<p>i think the answer is 4/9</p>
<p>if i counted right, then each slash is 1/9 of 1. sqrt of x is on the 6 line, making it 6/9 or 2/3. then sqrt x = 2/3, square both sides to get x = (2/3)^2, making the answer 4/9. correct if i'm wrong please.</p>
<p>thank you, and yes that is the right answer!</p>
