Formula for the area of a square = side^2
So, 15^2 will result in the area.
Thus, the answer is 225 mm^2 (when squaring, units are always given the square as well.)
a.
This is the geometric sequence: a1 = 1.5 m = 150
cm, r = 0.74
The formula now is an = a1 x r ^ n-1
Just substitute a1 = 150 cm and r = 0.74
an = 150 x (0.74) ^ n – 1
b.
The second part is:
A6 = 150 x 0.74 ^ 6-1
= 150 x 0.74 ^5
= 150 x 0.221906624
= 33.28509936 cm
2x was subtracted from both sides.

-3.132 is the answer, you just had to multiply all of them one at a time (:
