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
