D) 30 in.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. 34in

Step-by-step explanation:

If James completely covered a square poster board using 68.2 inches with an exponent of 2, the the total perimeter of the square will be;

P = 2(68.2) = 136.4in

Since the perimeter of a square is expressed as:

P = 4L

136.4 = 4L

L = 136.4/4

L = 34.1in

Hence the measurement of one side of the square poster is closest to 34in
