Let's the length to be x,
then the width is 8x - 2.
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2*Width + 2*Length
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(8x-2) + 2x = 16x - 4 + 2x = 18x - 4
Ar the same time, Perimeter of the rectangle = 88.
So, we can write
18x - 4 = 88
18x = 84
9x=42
x= 42/9 cm (length) or ≈ 4.67 cm (length)
8x - 2 = 8*42/9 - 2 ≈ 35.33 cm (width)
25 thirtieths would equal five sixths equal.
Hope This Helps!! :)

Answer:
a) Discrete, because the number of point scored during basket ball is countable.
For instance, the amount of point scored in a basketball could be 75, 103, 63 etc. The numbers are countable
b) Continuous, because the amounts of rainfall is a random variable that is uncountable.
For instance, the amount of rainfall in City Upper B during April could be 0.10 inches of rain per hour, 0.30 inches of rain per hour. This numbers are not countable, they are rather approximated or rounded off.
Step-by-step explanation:
A random variable is considered discrete if its possible values are countable while a random variable is considered to be continuous if it's possible values are not countable.
