The length=x+5
\n" ); document.write( "Width= x meters
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter=2L+2B
\n" ); document.write( "\"38+=+2%28x%2B5%29+%2B+2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"38+=+2x%2B+10%2B+2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"38-10=4x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "The width of the fence should be 7 meters
\n" ); document.write( "The length= is 5+x=5+7=12 meters
