Answer:

  9

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 10-inch stones, then (x-1) is the number of 5-inch stones, and the total width is ...

  10x +5(x-1) = 130

  15x -5 = 130 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  15x = 135 . . . . . . add 5

  x = 9 . . . . . . . divide by 15

Wesley will need 9 10-inch stones for one row.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 200 feet. Describe the possible lengths of a side if the area of the rectangle is not to exceed
slavikrds [6]
Length=x
width=y
Perimeter of a rectangle=2(length)+2(width)
Therefore:
2x+2y=200
We simplify the equation dividend both sides of this equation by 2:
x+y=100  
Then:
y=100-x

Area of a rectangle: length x width
We have the next inequation: 
x(100-x)<900
100x-x²<900
x²-100x+900<0

We solve this inequation
1) we solve this equation:
x²-100x+900=0
x=[100⁺₋√(10000-3600)]/2=(100⁺₋80)/2
We have two solutions in this equation:
x₁=90
x₂=10

2)With these values, we make intervals:
(-∞,10)
(10,90)
(90,∞)

3)With these intervals, we check it out if the inequation works: 
(-∞,10); for example; if x=0 ⇒ 0²-100(0)+900=100>0, this interval don´t work.
(10,90);f.e: if x=11; ⇒ 11²-100(11)+900=-79<0, this interval works.
(90,∞); fe; if x=91 ⇒91²-(100)91+900=81>0; this interval don´t work.

answer: the possible lengths would be the values inside of this interval:
(10,90) ft.
