Answer:

Dimensions = 21 centimeters by 4.2 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be L.

Let the width of the rectangle be W.

Given the following data;

Perimeter of rectangle = 50cm

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

L = 5W

To find the dimensions of the rectangle;

Perimeter of rectangle = 2L + 2W

50 = 2L + 2W

50 = 2(5W) + 2W

50 = 10W + 2W

50 = 12W

W = 50/12

W = 4.2 cm.

To find the length;

L = 5W

L = 5*4.2

L = 21 cm.

Serggg [28]

Probability is expressed as

number of favourable outcomes/total number of possible outcomes

Looking at the given scenario, the number os students that earned a grade of A is 5. Since we are concerned with these students, then, the number of favourable outcomes is 5.

The total number of students for all grades is 35. This means that the total number of possible outcomes is 35

Thus, the probability that a student earns a grade of A is

5/35

= 0.14
