    The perimeter of the pentagon is

    35y⁴ - 65x³

    We let s as the length of one side of the sandbox. Since the sandbox is a pentagon, it's perimeter is given by

    P = 5s

    5s = 35y⁴ - 65x³

    Solving for s

    5s = 5 (7y⁴ - 13x³)

    s = 7y⁴ - 13x³

    The length of one side is 7y⁴ - 13x³.
