It's going to be kind of crazy, but you need to use Pythagorean's Theorem for this. That will look like this:

. FOIL out the left side to get

. FOIL out the first of the 2 expressions on the right to get

, and the second of the 2 to get 4x. Our equation now looks like this:

. Combine like terms to get an equation that still has square roots in it that we have to deal with:

and

. We will square both sides to get rid of the square root sign.

. This is a polynomial now that can be factored to solve for x. Bring the 2x over by subtraction and set the polynomial equal to 0.

. Factor out an x, leaving us with x(x-2)=0. That means that x = 0 or x - 2 = 0 and x = 2. Of course if we are solving for the length of a side we know it can't have a side length of 0, so it must have a side length that is a multiple of 2. x = 2
Answer: 8 oz..
1 pound= 16oz if 8oz=1.59 so add it up 4 times 8+8+8+8= 32 which = 2 pounds total 8=1.59 8+8= 1.59x2=3.18 8+8+8=1.59x3=4.77 8+8+8+8/ 1.59x4= 6.36 so all of them eights will = up to 2 pounds and 8 is obviously less
