Question 1

A side of a square is 8^3/2 inches. Using the area formula A = s^2, determine the area of the square.

a) A = 24 square inches

b) A = 64 square inches

c) A = 512 square inches

d) A = 576 square inches

Answer 1

so given s = 8^(3/2) inches

area a = s^2

a = (8^(3/2))^2 = 8^((3/2)*2) = 8^3 = 512 square inches so the 3rd choice is right...
