Would this be correct usage?Le, la, l'=direct object; leur=indirect object; eux=pronoun with prepositions (and what is that called?)

pronoun yIl faut que j'y aille is translated as "I must go" but shouldn't it be "I must go there" - or is the "there" implied?

Approximate numbers - 70, 80, and 90Hi, in your lesson "How to make approximate numbers such as une dizaine (ten or so)" you explain how to form the approximate numbers dizaine (10), vintgaine (20), trentaine (30), quarantaine (40), cinquantaine (50), soixantaine (60) and centaine (100). You did not mention 70, 80, nor 90. Do these not exist? Or are my guesses "soixante-dizaine" (70), "quatre-vingtaines" (80) and "quatre-vingt-dizaine" (90) in the right direction?

Separation of pas ... du tout

I am surprised by the english translations provided above. For example:

I would translate the first as
"She's not at all stupid"

Elle n'est pas du tout stupide!
She's not stupid at all!

Elle n'est pas stupide du tout!
She's not stupid at all!
