For a rectangle Perimeter = P = 2L + 2W


\n" ); document.write( "In this problem call width = W and call length = W+49.


\n" ); document.write( "P = 134 = 2(W+49) + 2W = 2W + 98 + 2W


\n" ); document.write( "134 = 4W + 98


\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 98 from both sides.


\n" ); document.write( "36 = 4W


\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 4.


\n" ); document.write( "9 = W


\n" ); document.write( "L = W + 49 = 9+49 = 58
\n" ); document.write( "
