Answer:
18 units
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's list out the sides.
for the first square let's just call them x
for the second square then they would be x+5 and x-3
So let's write out their areas we will cal the area of the first one z
x*x = z
(x+5)*(x-3) = z+21
since z = x^2 we can set up the second equation as a quadratic.
(x+5)*(x-3) = x^2 + 21
x^2 - 3x + 5x - 15 = x^2 + 21
But look, the x^2s cancel out
2x - 15 = 21
2x = 36
x = 18
Test it out and see if it fits the description, And if you don't understand anything just let me know so I can explain more.

The first thing we should do is see what relationship we have:
Table is feet to yards 3-1
a. Describe the relationship between the number of feet and the number of yards
That is to say:
1Yarda = 3 feet
b. Write an expression for the number of yards in f feet
Let
y = Yard
f = feet
We have the following expression for the conversion:
y = (1/3) f
c. Find the number of yards in 63 feet
For this case we must substitute in the expression found the value of f = 63.
y = (1/3) f
y = (1/3) (63)
y = 21
answer:
1Yarda = 3 feet
y = (1/3) f
y = 21
