You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I cannot say was a \"rectangular 10t\" is, but I can solve the algebra.
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "We are given the information to setup our work:
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2L + 2W = 108
\n" ); document.write( "L = W + 8
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting we have:
\n" ); document.write( "2(W+8) + 2W = 108
\n" ); document.write( "2W + 16 + 2W = 108
\n" ); document.write( "4W = 92
\n" ); document.write( "W = 23
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Returning to the given information:
\n" ); document.write( "L = W + 8 = 23 + 8 = 31
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "So the proposed answer is:
\n" ); document.write( "W = 23
\n" ); document.write( "L = 31
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Now we check our work.
\n" ); document.write( "Is the length 8 more than the width?
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, 31 is 8 more than 23.
\n" ); document.write( "Is the perimeter 108?
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2L + 2W = 2(31) + 2(23) = 62 + 46 = 108. Yes it is.
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Done except that I don't know what a \"rectangular 10t\" is. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
