The equation the describes the motion of an object is x=1/2at^2+Vot+Xot, where x is the position of the object, a is the acceleration, t is the time, Vo is the initial speed, and Xo is the initial position. Show that the dimensions in the equation are consistent?

As written I do not think it is dimensionally consistent - the last term Xot is incorrect, I believe.

yes it must be $$x= 0.5 at ^2+ v_0 t+ x_0$$
