width = x
\n" ); document.write( "length = x+3
\n" ); document.write( "perimeter p = 2*(L+W)
\n" ); document.write( "p=2*(x+x+3)
\n" ); document.write( "p=2*(2x+3)
\n" ); document.write( "p=4x+6
\n" ); document.write( "4x+6 =24
\n" ); document.write( "4x =24-6
\n" ); document.write( "4x=18
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 4
\n" ); document.write( "4x/4 = 18/4
\n" ); document.write( "x=4.5 cm. width
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Length = x+3
\n" ); document.write( "=4.5+3=7.5 cm.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
