How many positive integers are there such that ⌊ x ⌋ = 1 0 ?
Details and assumptions
The function ⌊ x ⌋ : R → Z refers to the greatest integer smaller than or equal to x . For example ⌊ 2 . 3 ⌋ = 2 and ⌊ − 5 ⌋ = − 5 .

How did you know that x had to be less then 11?

x is not less that 11 by the way, but rather the square root of x is less than 11
The square root of x must be less than 11. This is because if it is 11 or greater than 11, then the floor of the function will be 11 or more.
why it must be 11,??

1 0 + 1 = 1 1
I'm not really sure what you are trying to say though.
De acordo com a definição temos:
√100 ≤ √x < √121 √100 ≤ √x ≤ √120
Daí,
120 - 100 + 1 = 21
⌊ x ⌋ = 1 0 means the the roots of the values of x have to be ≥ 1 0 but < 11. So we get the following inequalities:
x < 1 1 a n d x ≥ 1 0
Solving these we get:
x < 1 2 1 a n d x ≥ 1 0 0
So the range for x that satisfies those conditions is [100, 121). Since 100 is inclusive and 121 is not, we can simply do 121 -100 = 21 to get our answer.
⌊ x√ ⌋ = 102 ≤ x2 < 112 ⌊ x√ ⌋ = 100 ≤ x2 < 121
thus, [100, 121)
and there are 21 integers in this range

⌊ x ⌋ = 1 0 2 ≤ x 2 < 1 1 2
⌊ x ⌋ = 100 ≤ x 2 < 121
thus, [100, 121)
and there are 21 integers in this range

The question asks for the number of values for which x is greater or equal to 10 and less than 11. In order for this to occur, 1 0 ≤ x < 1 1 . So, we have 1 0 0 ≤ x < 1 2 1 , which gives us 2 1 positive integers.
