You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'll give you the equations, see if you can do these now.

\n" ); document.write( "1. The perimeter of a rectangle is 120 feet. The width of the rectangle is
\n" ); document.write( "equal to one half the length. Find the length and width of the rectangle?
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = width
\n" ); document.write( "2x = Length
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter equation
\n" ); document.write( "2(2x) + 2x = 120
\n" ); document.write( "Find x

\n" ); document.write( "2. The area of a rectangle is 576msqaured. The length of the rectangle is 4 times greater than the width. What are the length and width of the rectangle?
\n" ); document.write( "x = the width
\n" ); document.write( "4x = the length
\n" ); document.write( "Area equation
\n" ); document.write( "4x * x = 576
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2 = 576
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "3, One integer is 8 less than another integer. The product of the lesser
\n" ); document.write( " integer and -5 is 28 more than the greater integer. What are the integers?
\n" ); document.write( "x = the larger integer
\n" ); document.write( "(x-8) = the lesser integer
\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for the statement:
\n" ); document.write( "\"The product of the lesser integer and -5 is 28 more than the greater integer.\"
\n" ); document.write( "-5(x-8) = x + 28
\n" ); document.write( "Find x
