Question

Which equation finds the area of a square with a side length of 5n^4 units? (5n^4)^2=25n^8 square units (5n^4)^2=5n^8 square units square units 5( n^4)^2=5n^8 square units 5(n^4)^2=10n^8square units

Answer 1

Hi!
In this problem, you would multiply the constants and then add the exponents. The answer would be (5*5)n^(4+4), or 25n^8.

The answer is A: 25n^8

Answer 2

`25n^8`

Explanation:

finds the area of a square with a side length of 5n^4 units

Area of the square formula =
`(side)^2`

Where side represents the side of the square

Given side =
`5n^4`

Area of the square =
`(5n^4)^2`

To square it we multiply 2 inside the parenthesis

Area of the square =
`5^2n^8`

Area of the square =
`25n^8`
