Grade 82 mapped skills
What the test measures

The Number System skills

  1. Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers

  2. Work with square roots and cube roots

  3. Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers

Standards basis

Arkansas Academic Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M–aligned / Arkansas-adopted math standards) — Arkansas

How the ATLAS reports it

Arkansas’s statewide assessment system is ATLAS, which the ADE page says began serving in spring 2024. The official public page does not publish a math blueprint there, so the most defensible coverage map is the Arkansas math standards structure that ATLAS is aligned to.

Blueprint & weighting

ATLAS uses the Independent / state-specific framework (by grade domains structure).

Solve for the positive value of xx: x2=121x^2 = 121.

x=121=11x = \sqrt{121} = 11 because 11×11=12111 \times 11 = 121.

Practice playeasy

40\sqrt{40} is between two consecutive integers. Enter the smaller one.

62=36<40<49=726^2 = 36 < 40 < 49 = 7^2, so 40\sqrt{40} is between 66 and 77; the smaller is 66.

What is 81\sqrt{81}?

9×9=819 \times 9 = 81, so 81=9\sqrt{81} = 9.

Practice playeasy

27\sqrt{27} lies between two consecutive integers. Enter the larger one.

52=25<27<36=625^2 = 25 < 27 < 36 = 6^2, so 27\sqrt{27} is between 55 and 66; the larger is 66.

What is 1,0003\sqrt[3]{1{,}000}?

10×10×10=1,00010 \times 10 \times 10 = 1{,}000, so 1,0003=10\sqrt[3]{1{,}000} = 10.

Practice playeasy

What integer is closest to 120\sqrt{120}?

112=12111^2 = 121 sits right above 120120 and 12010.95\sqrt{120} \approx 10.95, so the closest integer is 1111.

Practice playeasy

What is 64\sqrt{64}?

8×8=648 \times 8 = 64, so 64=8\sqrt{64} = 8.

Practice playeasy

What is the integer part of 10+2\sqrt{10} + 2?

103.16\sqrt{10} \approx 3.16, so 10+25.16\sqrt{10} + 2 \approx 5.16; the integer part is 55.
