Answer:

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of each red rod in centimeters

y ----> the length of each blue rod in centimeters

we know that

$3x=2y+2$ ----> equation A

$3y=4x+2$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (10,14)

see the attached figure

therefore

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

One movie-related statistical question would be the length of people's favorite movies (in minutes). This would contain variability since people would have different favorite movies, which would have different lengths.
One movie-related question that does not yield variability is the number of movies released in 2018 that grossed more than $100 million. This would be a fixed fact, so there is no variability about this.
