Answer:
The width of the rectangular prism is 9 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the formula of the volume of a bar 
we see that 
cm.
5(w - 1) - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
5w - 5w = 7 + 7

The temperature was -14°F at 8 a.m.
At noon is was 10 degrees warmer - the temperature increase was 10°F
-14°F + 10°F = -4°F
The tempertaure increase between noon and 4 p.m. was twice the previous increase in temperature, which was 10°F.
10°F x 2 = 20°F
We want to know the temperature at 4 p.m. so we just add it up to the previous result.
-4°F + 20°F = 16°F
16°F is the correct answer
