A square of 81cm² is cut to make two rectangles, A and B The ratio of area A to are B is 2:3
Work out the dimensions of A and B

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.

Length of A: 9

Width of A: 6

Length of B: 9

Width of B: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the final answer! : )

step-by-step explanation: so we look at the formula un = a + (n-1)d

un is the amount of seats

n is the nth term aka row number

a is the original sequence/row number

d is the difference between each term

so in this a=22 d=6 and n can remain as n because we are simply formjng a rule

lets put these in the equation

un=22+(n-1)(6)

this is your answer to part a

however

lets double check that this is correct, we'll try putting it into the second term

un=a+(n-1)d

u2=22+(2-1)(6)

u2=22+6

u2=28

as the question said the second row has 28 seats so now we know the formula we made is correct.

as for part b

un=a+(n-1)

its asking us to find a row with 100 seats.

remember un was the amount of seata so all we do is substitute this in.

un=100 a=22 d=6

un=a+(n-1)d

100=22+(n-1)(6)

so now we simplify to find n which is the row number.

100-22=22+(n-1)(6)-22

78=(n-1)(6)

78/6=(n-1)(6)/6

13=n-1

13+1=n-1+1

14=n

so now we know that in the 14th row there is 100 seats.

hope this and that you understood! its my first time using the app or anyone out on here : p its also me to revise so a bunch! ask more questions if you dont understand ☺
