do this for me: I need your help with a mathematical question: Starting with the number 11,750, first calculate its square root. Based on this square root, compute new numbers by adding and subtracting certain values (2, 1.666, 1.5, 1.333, 1, 0.666, 0.5, 0.333), then squaring the results. Make one table format for the positive (added) values, and another for negative (subtracted) values listing which square value it represents (2, 1.666, 1.5, 1.333, 1, 0.666, 0.5, 0.333). Be sure to present your finding in a clear concise table format.

√11750 ≈ 108.321
Step 2: Add and subtract each of the given values from the square root. Then square the results.
Added Values:
- 108.321 + 2 = 110.321 (110.321)^2 = 12170.9
- 108.321 + 1.666 = 109.987 (109.987)^2 = 12095.4
- 108.321 + 1.5 = 109.821 (109.821)^2 = 12062.5
- 108.321 + 1.333 = 109.654 (109.654)^2 = 12029.6
- 108.321 + 1 = 109.321 (109.321)^2 = 11963.8
- 108.321 + 0.666 = 108.987 (108.987)^2 = 11898.2
- 108.321 + 0.5 = 108.821 (108.821)^2 = 11865.4
- 108.321 + 0.333 = 108.654 (108.654)^2 = 11832.6
Subtracted Values:
- 108.321 - 2 = 106.321 (106.321)^2 = 11300.9
- 108.321 - 1.666 = 106.655 (106.655)^2 = 11367.1
- 108.321 - 1.5 = 106.821 (106.821)^2 = 11400.0
- 108.321 - 1.333 = 106.988 (106.988)^2 = 11433.1

did you use similar to this? Calculations
To calculate the squares of the numbers obtained by adding or subtracting the given values to or from the square root of 11,750, we simply use the following formula:
(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 where a is the square root of 11,750 and b is the value being added or subtracted.
For example, to calculate the square of the number obtained by adding 2 to the square root of 11,750, we would use the following formula:
(108.397417 + 2)^2 = 108.397417^2 + 2 * 108.397417 * 2 + 2^2
No, I did not use the binomial theorem for these calculations. Your method, using the binomial theorem, is mathematically correct, but it is an alternative approach and not necessary for this particular problem.
The binomial theorem is useful when you are trying to expand a binomial raised to a power without actually having to do the multiplication. In your case, you're trying to find the square of a number, which is just the number times itself.
In this problem, I used a simpler method. I added or subtracted each given number from the square root of 11750 and then squared the result directly.
Here's an example:
For the number obtained by adding 2 to the square root of 11750:
- Add 2 to 108.321 (the square root) to get 110.321
- Square 110.321 to get 12170.9
This method gets us to the same result as the binomial theorem but with less computation.
