Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 1 = 3 parts , thus
81 cm² ÷ 3 = 27 cm² ← value of 1 part of the ratio
2 parts = 2 × 27 = 54 cm²
Area of A = 54 cm² and area of B = 27 cm²
The side of the original square = 
= 9 cm
The width of both rectangles is 9 cm ( width remains unchanged after cut )
Thus
Rectangle A
9 × length = 54 ( divide both sides by 9 )
length = 6 cm
Rectangle B
9 × length = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
length = 3 cm
Rectangle A → length = 6 cm, width = 9 cm
Rectangle B → length = 3 cm , width = 9 cm

Answer:
Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. The walnuts cost $6 per pound. He uses the equation 2x + 6y = 12 to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. He solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy.
Given:
2x + 6y = 12
where
x = number of pounds of granola y = number of pounds of walnuts
The correct solution to the problem
x = 3 pounds
2x + 6y = 12
2(3) + 6y = 12
6 + 6y = 12
Subtract 6 from both sides
6 + 6y - 6 = 12 - 6
6y = 6
Divide both sides by 6
y = 6/6
= 1
y = 1 pound
Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.
