A rectangular sports pitch has length \(x\) metres and width \(y\) metres, where \(x > y\) Given that the perimeter of the pitch is 350 m ,
- write down an equation linking \(x\) and \(y\)
Given also that the area of the pitch is \(7350 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 2 }\)
- write down a second equation linking \(x\) and \(y\)
- hence find the value of \(x\) and the value of \(y\)
