<p>The<a>square</a><a>of</a>a<a>number</a>is the<a>product</a>of the number by itself. The square of 2.4 is 2.4 × 2.4. The square of a number often ends in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9. We write it in<a>math</a>as 2.4², where 2.4 is the<a>base</a>and 2 is the<a>exponent</a>. The square of a positive and a negative number is always positive. For example, 5² = 25; -5² = 25.</p>

<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
43
<p>The area of a square = a²</p>
42
<p>The area of a square = a²</p>
44
<p>So, the area of a square = 5.76 cm²</p>
43
<p>So, the area of a square = 5.76 cm²</p>
45
<p>So, the length = √5.76 = 2.4.</p>

<p>Alice is planning to paint her square table of length 2.4 feet. The cost to paint a foot is 10 dollars. Then how much will it cost to paint the full table?</p>
52
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
51
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
53
<p>The length of the table = 2.4 feet</p>
52
<p>The length of the table = 2.4 feet</p>
54
<p>The cost to paint 1 square foot of the table = 10 dollars.</p>
53
<p>The cost to paint 1 square foot of the table = 10 dollars.</p>
55
<p>To find the total cost to paint, we find the area of the table,</p>
54
<p>To find the total cost to paint, we find the area of the table,</p>
56
<p>Area of the table = area of the square = a²</p>
55
<p>Area of the table = area of the square = a²</p>
57
<p>Here a = 2.4</p>
56
<p>Here a = 2.4</p>
58
<p>Therefore, the area of the table = 2.4² = 2.4 × 2.4 = 5.76.</p>
57
<p>Therefore, the area of the table = 2.4² = 2.4 × 2.4 = 5.76.</p>
59
<p>The cost to paint the table = 5.76 × 10 = 57.6.</p>
58
<p>The cost to paint the table = 5.76 × 10 = 57.6.</p>
60
<p>The total cost = 57.6 dollars</p>
59
<p>The total cost = 57.6 dollars</p>
61
<h3>Explanation</h3>

<h3>Explanation</h3>
62
<p>To find the cost to paint the table, we multiply the area of the table by the cost to paint per foot. So, the total cost is 57.6 dollars.</p>
