P = 2(L+W)
\n" ); document.write( "P = 34
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "L = W+9
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "34 = 2(W+9 +W)
\n" ); document.write( "34 = 2W +18 +2W
\n" ); document.write( "16 = 4W
\n" ); document.write( "4W = 16
\n" ); document.write( "W = 4
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "L = 4+9
\n" ); document.write( "L = 13
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2(4+13)
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2(17)
\n" ); document.write( "P = 34
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: Length = 13 ft; width = 4 ft.
