    130 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x = width of the park.

    Then the length = x + 10

    The perimeter is 2 lengths and 2 widths added together. The perimeter is 500 ft.

    x + 10 + x + 10 + x + x = 500

    4x + 20 = 500

    4x = 480

    x = 120

    x + 10 = 130

    The length of the park is 130 ft.
