Answer:

  T, T, F, F, T

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, it is helpful to know ...

  √8 ≈ 2.8284

  √7 ≈ 2.6458

Now you can check the inequalities:

  • 0 < √8 < 3 . . . . . . true
  • √8 > √7 . . . . . . . . true
  • √8 < 2 . . . . . false
  • √8 > 8 . . . . . false
  • 1 < √8 . . . . . . . . . . true

0, 1, 2, and √7 are left of √8 on a number line, so are all less than √8.

3 and 8 are right of √8 on a number line, so are greater than √8.
