width = w
\n" ); document.write( "length = 2w - 3
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2w+%2B+2l+=+Perimeter\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2w+%2B+4w+-+6+=+54\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6w+=+60\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"w+=+10\"$
\n" ); document.write( "length = 2w - 3 = 20 - 3 = 17
\n" ); document.write( "17ft x 10ft \n" ); document.write( "
