The area of a square is equal to the side squared.
s^2=A

We can plug in 24 for A and then take the square root of each side to find s.
s^2=24 \\ s=\sqrt{24}

We can simplify √24.
The prime factorization of 24 is 2×2×2×3.
Since we have 2×2 inside the radical we can simplify to have 2 outside the radical.
\sqrt{24}=\sqrt{4\times6}=\boxed{2\sqrt{6}\ ft}

We can then use a calculator to find an approximate decimal value for 2√6.
(You could technically calculate it by hand using the Babylonian method, I don't think you're expected to do that, though)
2\sqrt{6}\approx\boxed{4.9\ ft}

Answer:

A) Distance time graph

B) d(t) = 25t

C) The expression shows the distance more clearly.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) A distance time graph as seen in the attachment provides a representation of the distance travelled.

We are told the car travels at a constant speed of 100 meters per 4 seconds. Which means that 100 m for each 4 hours. So, for 200m, it's 8 hours like seen in the graph and for 300m,it's 12 hours as seen in the graph.

B) And expression for the distance is;

d = vt

Where;

d is distance in metres

v is speed in m/s and t is time

We are told that the car travels at a constant speed of 100 meters per 4 seconds.

Thus, v = 100/4 = 25 m/s

Distance travelled over time is;

d(t) = 25t

C) Looking at both A and B above, it's obvious that the expression of the distance shows a more clearer way of getting the distance because once we know the time travelled, we will just plug it into the equation and get the distance. Whereas, for the representation form, one will need to longer graphs if the time spent is very long.
