3 . a) _ _ _ _ c) Answers may vary. Look for the idea that a perfect decimal square exists if it has an even number of zeros before the perfect square number.. The expression _ 5 is not a perfect square because when you multiply two positive or two negative numbers the answer is always positive. The expression 7 is a perfect cube because when you multiply three negative numbers, such as ( )( )( ), the answer is negative. Therefore, it is possible to have a negative perfect cube. 5. a) When you double the side lengths of a square, the area increases by a factor of or. Example: A s (s) s When you triple the side lengths, the area increases by a factor of or 9. Example: A s (s) 9s When you double the edge lengths of a cube, the volume increases by a factor of or.

The expression x does not have a solution when x is negative. It is not possible to determine the even root of a negative number. Example: The expression x ( ) _ 7 has no solution.. The expression x always has a solution because when you raise a negative number to an even exponent, the result is always a positive number and then it is possible to take the cube root of the positive number.. a) Example: For all non-perfect squares, the calculator screen shows 9 decimals. Yes. Example: The square root of each non-perfect square is an irrational number since it cannot be expressed as a terminating or a repeating decimal.
