L=W+5
\n" ); document.write( "P=2L+2W
\n" ); document.write( "70=2(W+5)+2W
\n" ); document.write( "70=2W+10+2W
\n" ); document.write( "70=4W+10
\n" ); document.write( "4W=17-10
\n" ); document.write( "4E=60
\n" ); document.write( "W=60/4
\n" ); document.write( "W=15 INCHES. ANS. FOR THE WIDTH.
\n" ); document.write( "L=15+5=20 INCHES ANS. FOR THE LENGTH.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "70=2*20+2*15
