Problem 1

Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 9216 cm².

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 9216 cm² So, the length = √9216 = 96. The length of each side = 96 cm

Explanation

The length of a square is 96 cm. Because the area is 9216 cm², the length is √9216 = 96.

Problem 2

Sarah wants to tile her square patio of length 96 feet. The cost to tile a foot is 4 dollars. How much will it cost to tile the entire patio?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The length of the patio = 96 feet The cost to tile 1 square foot of patio = is 4 dollars. To find the total cost to tile, we find the area of the patio, Area of the patio = area of the square = a² Here a = 96 Therefore, the area of the patio = 96² = 96 × 96 = 9216. The cost to tile the patio = 9216 × 4 = 36864. The total cost = 36864 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to tile the patio, we multiply the area of the patio by the cost to tile per foot. So, the total cost is 36864 dollars.
