Answer:

The possible dimensions of the deck can be anything that adds up to be 130 m.

Explanation:

The perimeter could be 1m x 64m.

Two sides would be 1m each (so 2m total) and the other two sides would be 64m each (128m total). 2 + 128 = 130m.

The perimeter could be 15m x 50m.

Two sides would be 15m each (so 30m total) and the other two sides would be 50m each (100m total). 30 + 100 = 130m.
