The length of a rectangle is 3 in. more than the width.
\n" ); document.write( "L = W + 3
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter of the rectangle is 24 in.
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2L + 2W
\n" ); document.write( "24 = 2(W+3) + 2W
\n" ); document.write( "24 = 2W+6 + 2W
\n" ); document.write( "4w + 6 =24
\n" ); document.write( "4W = 18
\n" ); document.write( "W = 9/2 = 4 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "L = 4 1/2 + 3 = 7 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
