Let the dimensions be x and y
Given that the area is 40m²
xy = 40 ----------------- (1)
Given that the perimeter is 26
2(x + y) = 26
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y ---------------- Sub into (1)
(13 - y)y = 40
13y - y² = 40
y² - 13y + 40 = 0
(y - 8)(y - 5) = =
y = 8 or y = 5
The dimensions are 8 meters and 5 meters

Answer:
£0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
t = one cup of tea
c = one piece of cake
t + c = £1.10
2t + c = £1.70
the cost increases by £0.60 (£1.70 - £1.10) when you order one more cup of tea which means that one cup of tea costs £0.60
substitute £0.60 into t + c = £1.10
£0.60 + c = £1.10
rearrange to get c = £1.10 - £0.60 = £0.50
so one piece of cake costs £0.50
