Here's 1.)
-Use w to symbolize the weight of kittens. Given by the statement "each kitten weighs less than 3.5 ounces" we know that:-
1w < 3.5 
-You can multiply both sides of the inequality by 7 to determine the total weights: 7(1w) < 7(3.5) 7*w < 24.5
-Since there are 7 kittens, the combined weight of the kittens is 7w, therefore the above expression could be read as "The combined weight of the kittens is less than 24.5 ounces"

Here's 2.)
Answer:
width = 170.5/15.5 = 11 ft
Explanation:
area = 170.5 sq ft.
length = 15.5 ft.
width = 170.5/15.5 = 11 ft
