length = 68 cm and width = 10 cm

let w represent the width then length = 7w - 2

perimeter = 2(length + width) = 2(7w - 2 + w)= 2(8w - 2) = 16w -4

we are given perimeter = 156 thus

16w - 4 = 156 → (solve for w)

add 4 to both sides

16w = 156 + 4 = 160

divide both sides by 16

w = $\frac{160}{16}$ = 10

thus width = 10 cm and length = (7 × 10) - 2 = 70 - 2 = 68 cm

Gg easy

remember
(x^m)/(x^n)=x^(m-n)
and
(x^m)^n=x^(mn)
and
(xyz)^m=(x^m)(y^m)(z^m)
and
(m/n)^a=(m^a)/(n^a)
and
x^-n=1/(x^n)

so
$( \frac{6mn^{-2}}{3m^{-1}n^2} )^{-3}$ =
$( \frac{6}{3} )^{-3}( \frac{m}{m^{-1}} )^{-3}( \frac{n^{-2}}{n^2} )^{-3}$ =
$(2^{-3})((m^2)^{-3})((n^{-4})^{-3})$ =
$( \frac{1}{2^3})(m^{-6})(n^{12})$ =
$( \frac{1}{8} )( \frac{1}{m^6})(n^{12})$ =
$\frac{n^{12}}{8m^6}$

The initial investment was 3.03 because this is the value that does not change and comes before the value with the exponent "2x" is mentioned.
