Answer:
see explanation
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

Gavin needs $80 to buy a fish tank. He has saved $8 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $9 per hour. Which inequality shows the minimum number of hours, n, that Gavin should work as a babysitter to earn enough to buy the fish tank? 8 + 9n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 8 8 + 9n ≤ 80, so n ≤ 8 9n ≥ 80 + 8, so n ≥ 9.8 9n ≤ 80 + 8, so n ≤ 9.8
The length is 5 because 5 cubed equals 125.
You can see that the term
appears in both equations. In this cases, we can leverage this peculiarity and subtract the two equations to get rid of the repeated term. So, if we subtract the first equation from the second, we have

Now that we know the value of
, we can substitute in any of the equation to deduce the value of
: if we use the first equation, for example, we have
