X - unit of length
w,l - the sides of a rectangle

7 : 2 ⇒ 7x : 2x

Perimeter: P = 207cm
Perimeter: P = 2w + 2l

therefore: 2w + 2l = 207    |divide both sides by 2

w + l = 103.5 (cm)

w : l = 7 : 2 ⇒ w : l = 7x : 2x ⇒ w = 7x; l = 2x

subtitute

7x + 2x = 103.5
9x = 103.5    |divide both sides by 9
x = 11.5 (cm)

7x = 7 · 11.5cm = 80.5cm
2x = 2 · 11.5cm = 23cm

w = 80.5cm; l = 23cm

Area = wl

Area: A = 80.5cm · 23cm = 1851.5cm²

Answer: C, 7.5

Step-by-step explanation: Since he can ring up 2 customers in 8 minutes, that would mean he can ring up 4 in 16 minutes. He could also ring up 6 in 24 minutes. He could do this since every two customers is 8 minutes. 4 minutes would mean he could do 1 customer and 2 minutes would be .5 customer. So, at 24 minutes he could ring 6 customers and a extra 6 minutes to 30 minutes would add 1.5 customers to a total of 7.5 customers in half an hour (30 minutes)
