Assuming you are asking what does x represent when you say "What does represent" the answer is a: the number of days it take the brothers to paint 13 pictures.
The first 2 sentences are useless and don't tell you anything (well they do but you don't need the information).
Both brothers can paint 13 pictures in x days.
So x means days, more specifically, the number of days it took for the brothers to paint 13 pictures.

4x + 3y = 26
x = 3/2y + 2
solving for y:
4 (3/2y + 2) + 3y = 26
6y + 8 + 3y = 26
9y + 8 =26
9y = 18
y = 2
solving for x:
x = 3/2(2) + 2
x = 3 + 2
x = 5
done.
