What whole number best approximates the value of x?

Answer:
[tex]x=81[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
Observing the graph
The number [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] lie on the interval----> (9.3,9.4)
so
Square root of x is greater than 9.3 and is less than 9.4
Round square root of x to the nearest whole number
[tex]\sqrt{x}=9[/tex] ----> because square root of x is less than 9.5
squared both sides
[tex]x=9^{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=81[/tex]
