Question 250645
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


The surface area of a cube is given by:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ SA_{cube}\ =\ 6s^2]


Where *[tex \Large s] is the measure of one of the edges.  So:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 6s^2\ =\ 536]


Solve for a numerical approximation of *[tex \Large s].  Note the instruction to express your answer to an inappropriately precise 2 decimal places.  You need to follow the instruction despite the fact that the proper representation of the measure of a side of this cube is to the nearest whole inch because the surface area was given to the nearest whole square inch.  No result of a calculation involving measurements should be expressed with greater precision than the least precise of the input measurements.
