The width is 8.2
Perimeter = 2W + 2L (there are four sides of a rectangle, two longer sides, two shorter, W and L)

65.6 = 2W + 2L
L = 3W so substitute 3W in for L 
65.6 = 2W +2 (3W) 
65.6 = 8W 
W = 8.2 cm 
L = 3(8.2) 
L = 24.6cm

I misread the question.
3w=l
2l+2w=65.6
8w=65.6
w=8.2
l=24.6

In a population distribution, a score of x=57 corresponds to z=-0.25 and a score of x=87 corresponds to z=1.25. Find the mean an

Serggg [28]

Here is dependence between scores and x-values:

$Z_i=\dfrac{X_i-\mu}{\sigma},$

where $\mu$ is the mean, $\sigma$ is standard deviation and i changes from 1 to 2.

1. When i=1, $Z_1=-0.25,\ X_1=57,$ then

$-0.25=\dfrac{57-\mu}{\sigma}.$

2. When i=2, $Z_2=1.25,\ X_2=87,$ then

$1.25=\dfrac{87-\mu}{\sigma}.$

Now solve the system of equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}-0.25=\dfrac{57-\mu}{\sigma}\\ \\1.25=\dfrac{87-\mu}{\sigma}.\end{array}\right.$

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}-0.25\sigma=57-\mu\\ \\1.25\sigma=87-\mu.\end{array}\right.$

Subtract first equation from the second:

$1.25\sigma-(-0.25\sigma)=87-57,\\ \\1.5\sigma=30,\\ \\\sigma=20.$

Then

$1.25=\dfrac{87-\mu}{20},\\ \\87-\mu=25,\\ \\\mu=87-25=62.$

Answer: the mean is 62, the standard deviation is 20.
