Answer:

Length of A: 9

Width of A: 6

Length of B: 9

Width of B: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the diagram, you can see that the length of rectangles A and B are the same, and are also the same as they were in the original square. We can find the length of each side by finding the square root of the area of the square to give us the length and width of the square which is 9. Now that we know that the length of both rectangles A and B, we can find the width of both rectangles by taking 9, and splitting it into 3 portions of 3. Since the ratio of area is 2:1, we could also do this with the area, but since we know the lengths are the same, we know the widths are proportional to the area. Using the ratio of 2:1, and the 3 portions of 3, you can combine 2 of these portions to get 6, and since the ratio 6:3 is proportional to 2:1, these measurements can be used as the width of each rectangle. Thus, the answer given above.

For part 2, you would use 3 thousands, as that is the biggest amount possible so far. The, you would use 1 ten [instead of 16 ones] and then 6 ones bacuse that is the smallest amount.

Samantha is going on vacation for the summer and is trying to choose between two different plans. The first plan costs $450 for

ziro4ka [17]

Pretend the cost of the hotel is called "x" and the amusement park is "y"
make the equations.
450=3x+2y and 700=5x+3y
since you're solving for amusement park, you basically just solve for y
multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 3.
2250=15x+10y and 2100=15x+9y
these are a system of equations so subtract one from the other to cancel the x values away.
150=y so the answer is that a day trip to the amusement park costs $150
