Question

Literal Equation problem?

Answer 1

Be patient, I am writing it.

Answer 2

In order to solve the literal equation: \[A = s^{2}\] for s, what should you do to the equation?

Answer 3

\[\forall A\epsilon [0,\infty)\] (For all A be belongs between 0 and infinity [a positive number])
take the square root of both sides.

Answer 4

Square root? Is that s? omg.

Answer 5

\[\sqrt{s^2}=(s^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}=s\]
\[\sqrt{s^2}=s=\sqrt{A}\]

Answer 6

I dont know. Look, the problem is that I know that this problem is like algebra, but I am in like math 3 (or pre-algebra) and I do not know all these check mark characters and stuff. I know PEMDAS negative signs exponents, fractions, but thats it.
Sorry.

Answer 7

The square root is something you should've learned before pre-algebra.
2*2 = 4
(-2)*(-2) = 4
the square root of 4 = 2, and square root of 4 = -2
Also written like this.
\[\sqrt{4}=\pm 2\]

In your situation, \[s^2=s*s\]
If you take the square root of s^2, you will get s.
