Answer:
3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 9 divided in 3 is 3 and if you used 1/3 it’s 3cm
Hello!

2x + 1 = 5x - 8
Solve by subtracting both sides by 2x:
2x - 2x + 1 = 5x - 2x - 8
1 = 3x - 8
Add 8 to both sides:
1 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8
9 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
9/3 = 3x/3
x = 3
Basically you know that they are 2 consecutive numbers whose product is 1980.
<span>n*(n+1)=1980 </span>
<span>n^2 + n - 1980 = 0 </span>
<span>(n -44)(n + 45)= 0 </span>
<span>n=44 </span>
<span>so the 2 page numbers is 44 and 45. </span>
<span>The faster way is just to take the square root of 1980 and since that is 44.497 you can conclude that the 2 numbers is below and above it (44, 45)</span>
