divide 68/4
OpenStudy (errinss):
but the sqrt of 64 is 8...so 68 would be a lil over 8
OpenStudy (leenathan):
A SQUARE HAS 4 SIDES
OpenStudy (hauntedwoodsgal):
Ok so what are you going to divide
OpenStudy (leenathan):
so 68/4

OpenStudy (errinss):
@Cheez can you help us?

OpenStudy (leenathan):
take the square root of 595... that will give the side length
remember the area of a square is
A=l2 so A√=
OpenStudy (leenathan):
A=l2 so A√=l
OpenStudy (errinss):
huh?
OpenStudy (leenathan):
wait
OpenStudy (errinss):
its only asking for 1 side, so i would sqrt it?

uhm no we're on a different question
OpenStudy (errinss):
the first one would be A:8.2 right?
rishavraj (rishavraj):
for the A square fishpond has an area of 68 square feet. To the nearest tenth, what is the length of one side of the fishpond?
see
let the side length be a
so
a^2 = 68
a = 8.2
rishavraj (rishavraj):
@errinss yeah it would be A

its asking for the answer to the nearest 10th not 68
rishavraj (rishavraj):
* @errinss the answer is 24.4 :)
OpenStudy (errinss):
nvrm @leenathan you were right for the first one it is C.... and the second one is as well
C
OpenStudy (leenathan):
the area is 68 which consists the whole shape
