Answer:

The length of the rectangular playing field is 177 yards and the width is 46 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the length of the rectangular playing field

x -----> the width of the rectangular playing field

we know that

The perimeter of the  rectangular playing field is

P=2(x+y)

P=446 yd

so

446=2(x+y) ------> equation A

x=4y-7 -----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

446=2(4y-7+y)

223=5y-7

5y=223+7

5y=230

y=46

Find the value of x

x=4(46)-7

x=177

therefore

The length of the rectangular playing field is 177 yards and the width is 46 yards
