5. Ruhi is pouring concrete to create the foundation of a square deck covering 112 square feet. Which is the best estimate of one side of the deck? Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
10 feet
10.3 feet
10.6 feet
11 feet
To find the length of one side of the square deck, we need to take the square root of the total square footage (112 square feet).
√112 ≈ 10.6 feet
Therefore, the best estimate of one side of the deck is 10.6 feet.
