Answer:

B. [tex]\sqrt{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given four numbers. We are asked to find the irrational number from our given number.

A. [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{16}=4[/tex]

Since we can write 4 as a fraction, therefore, [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex] is a rational number.

B. [tex]\sqrt{15}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{15}=3.8729833462[/tex]

Since our given number has non-terminating non repeating decimal, therefore, [tex]\sqrt{16}[/tex] is an irrational number.

C. [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{36}=6[/tex]

Since we can write 6 as a fraction, therefore, [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] is a rational number.

D. [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{100}=10[/tex]

Since we can write 10 as a fraction, therefore, [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] is a rational number.
