The family needs 40 yards of fencing for the pool and 160 yards of fencing for the home.

Perimeter

The perimeter of a rectangle is:

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

For a square:

Perimeter = 4 * length

From the diagram:

Perimeter of pool = 4 * 2x = 8x

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(3 + 10x + 2 + 5x) = 30x + 10

Total amount of fencing = 8x + 30x + 10 = 38x + 10

x = 5. hence:

Perimeter of pool = 8(5) = 40 yards

Perimeter of home = 30(5) + 10 = 160 yard

The family needs 40 yards of fencing for the pool and 160 yards of fencing for the home.
