Length is 7x and the width is x
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(7x)(x)=1400
\n" ); document.write( "7x^2=1400
\n" ); document.write( "x^2=200
\n" ); document.write( "x=14
\n" ); document.write( "7(14)=98
\n" ); document.write( "Hence, its length is 98 and its width is 14 (rounded).
