Square root of 8 minus square root of 144 (√8-√144)

√8 - √144

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 8 and the square root of 144. Essentially, we will calculate √8 - √144.

First, we need to find the square root of each number individually. Then we will subtract one from the other. Below is the step-by-step calculation:

1. Calculate the square root of 8:
√8 ≈ 2.82843

2. Calculate the square root of 144:
√144 = 12

3. Subtract the square root of 144 from the square root of 8:
2.82843 - 12 = -9.17157
