Answer:
Option B, Surface Area = 24p²q²
Explanation:
The surface area of a cube can be expressed as a monomial by using the formula:
Surface Area = 6s²
Where "s" represents the length of one side of the cube.
It is given that the length of one side of the cube is 2pq. Plug this into the formula above. We get,
=> Surface Area = 6(2pq)²
Applying the power of a product rule for exponents we get,
=> Surface Area = 6(2pq)²
=> Surface Area = 6(2²p²q²)
=> Surface Area = 6(4p²q²)
=> Surface Area = 24p²q²
Thus, option B is the correct option.
