Answer:Perimeter of a rectangle is 2*the length plus 2*the width

P = 2L + 2W and P = 130, so

L + W = 65

Three times the length is equal to 10 times the width, giving

3L = 10W

Substituting into the above for L = 65 – W,

3(65 – W) = 10W

195 – 3W = 10W

195 = 13W

W = 195/13 = 15

W = 15 yards,

And L = (10/3)W = (10/3)*15 = 50

L = 50 yards

What does x = ?<br> If you can't see the numbers I can type them
nikitadnepr [17]
So you know that: 

2x+y=14+y
and
5x-y=x+13y

Here you have two equations with two unknown variables: 
If you isolate x from the second equations you get:
x=(7/2)y
Insert that in the first equations and solve for y: 
2*(7/2)y+y=14+y
y=2

Insert that value for y in one of the two equations (i chose the first): 
2x+2=14+2
x=7

Therefore x=7

Hope that helped. 

Actually you could start with isolating x, and then insert that in one of the two equations.
