Sandra bought 120 square feet of carpet for a room in her new house. if the room is square, what is the length of each side of the room? recall that the area of a square is calculated by l2, where l is the length of one side.

length of each side of the room is 2√30 which is approximately 10.9545 ft

Explanation:
The area of the square can be computed as follows:
Area = l²
where l is the length of the side

We are given that:
area = 120 ft²

Substitute with the area in the above equation and solve for l as follows:
area = l²
120 = l²
l = √120
l = 2√30 ft
This is approximately equal to 10.9545 ft

Hope this helps :)
