Answer:

System of equations:

L = 5W + 7

2W + 2L = P

L = 62 cm

W = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the measurements and key words/phrases in the problem, we can set up two different equations that can be used to find both variables, length and width, of the rectangle.  

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:  2W + 2L = P, where W = width and L = length.  We also know that the L is '7 more than five times its width'.  This can be written as:  L = 5W + 7.  Using this expression for the value of 'L', we can use the formula for perimeter and solve for width:

2W + 2(5W + 7) = 146

Distribute:  2W + 10W + 14 = 146

Combine like terms:  12W + 14 = 146

Subtract 14 from both sides:  12W + 14 - 14 = 146 - 14 or 12W = 132

Divide 12 by both sides:  12W/12 = 132/12 or W = 11

Put '11' in for W in the equation for 'L':  L = 5(11) + 7 or L = 55 + 7 = 62.

(36 3/4" + 36 3/8" + 371/2" +z) /4 = 36 5/8" 
This is the equation that you would get for the average. Now we just solve for z. 
Following PEMDAS you have to mulitply the equation by 4 to get rid of the divide by 4 part. 
4( (36 3/4" + 36 3/8" + 371/2" +z) /4 = 36 5/8)
Which does this
 36 3/4" + 36 3/8" + 371/2" +z = 146 1/2" 
Now you have to add and subtract to get "z" by itself. 
36 3/4" + 36 3/8" + 371/2" = 110 5/8" 
(110 5/8" + z = 146 1/2" ) -110 5/8"
z= 35 7/8", so the answer is b

3. In a game, if you roll a 6 on a 6-sided number cube, you lose a turn.
dlinn [17]
Part A: The probability is 1/6. This is because there are six options in total, and only one of those options is 6.

Part B: The probability is 6/6, or alternatively 100%. This is because that the probability of rolling a 6 is 1/6, and the probability of rolling any of the other options is 5/6. Adding them together gives a probability of 6/6.

Part C: The probability is 5/6. This is because there are six options, and of those, five of them are not 6.
