A rectangle carpet has a perimeter of 236 inches. The length of the carpet is 22 inches more than the width. what are the carpets dimensions...?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 1. Perimeter P means adding up all 4 sides of a rectangle.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 2. Let w be the width.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 3. Let w+22 be the length.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 4. Then, P=w+w+w+22+w+22=4w+44=236\r

DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"4%2Aw%2B44=highlight_red%28+236+%29\".
Moved these terms to the left \"highlight_green%28+-236+%29\"
It becomes \"4%2Aw%2B44-highlight_green%28+236+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"4%2Aw%2Bhighlight_red%28+44+%29-highlight_red%28+236+%29=0\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"4%2Aw%2Bhighlight_green%28+-192+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"4%2Aw%2Bhighlight_red%28+-192+%29=0\".
Removed extra sign in front of \"-192\"
It becomes \"4%2Aw-highlight_green%28+192+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+4%2Aw-192+%29=0\".
Solved linear equation \"highlight_red%28+4%2Aw-192=0+%29\" equivalent to 4*w-192 =0
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+0+%29=0\".
Result: \"0=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation! Solutions: w=48.
