Whoever has the best answer gets the brainliest answer! : )

Since the length is 10 in. You must multiply it by  and then multiply by . The reason for this is because if you divide ten by 5 it will be 2, then if you divide 2 by 2 it will be 1.

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
