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.

Answer:

Interest rate is 5.25% a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

r = (1/54)((22252.5/18000) - 1) = 0.004375

r = 0.004375

Convert decimal to percentage

R = 0.004375 * 100 = 0.4375%/month

Calculate annual rate

0.4375%/month × 12 months/year = 5.25% per year.
