let L and W be the length and width
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "P=2L+2W......eq 1
\n" ); document.write( "L=5W.........eq 2
\n" ); document.write( "P=70.........eq 3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Plug P's value from eq 3 and L's value from eq 2 into eq 1
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "70=2(5W)+2W
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "70=10W+2W
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "70=12W
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "W=70/12=35/6 m
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "L=5(35/6)=175/6 m
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
