Q. Pearson VUE - It's time to te: OnVUE System Test Downlos abe-prd−4.pearsonvue.com/hs1/driver/startDelivery? sessionUUiID=d386 GED Ready ® - Mathematical Reasoning - Yassin Ndow✓ Highilight (j)Formula SheetWhich number, when placed in the box, will make the equation true?□2=64A. 8B. 32C. 16D. 32
Given Equation: We are given the equation ◻2=64. To find the number that fits in the box, we need to understand that ◻2 means the square of the number in the box, and 64 is the square root of 64. We know that the square root of 64 is 8, because 8×8=64.
Understanding the Equation: Now that we know 64 is 8, we can rewrite the equation as □2=8. To find the number that fits in the box, we need to find a number that, when squared, equals 8. However, we notice that none of the options given are simply 8. Instead, they are either square roots or whole numbers. We need to find which of these options, when squared, will give us 8.
Rewriting the Equation: Let's evaluate each option:A. 8 squared is 8, because (8)2=8.B. 32 squared is 32, because (32)2=32.C. 16 squared is 256, because 162=256.D. 32 squared is 80, because 81.We are looking for the option that, when squared, equals 8.
Evaluating Options: From the calculations above, we can see that option A, 8, when squared, equals 8. This matches our equation □2=8. Therefore, the correct answer is A. 8.
