If I understand your problem correctly you have an answer of:
.
S+=+21.98%2Asqrt%28625%29+%2B+153.8
.
and you need to evaluate this answer.
.
Use a calculator to find that sqrt%28625%29+=+25. Then you can substitute 25 for sqrt%28625%29
and you reduce the given equation to:
.
S+=+%2821.98%2A25%29%2B153.8
.
Do the multiplication in the parentheses. 21.98 times 25 equals 549.5
.
When you substitute this into the equation it becomes:
.
S+=+549.5+%2B+153.8
.
The addition of the two terms on the right side results in:
.
S+=+703.3
.
This is the answer to the given problem. Hope it helps you to see how to do it.
