A=(Length)(width) [Use the formula for the area of a rectangle]
\n" ); document.write( "104=(5w)(w) [Plug-in the values that are given]
\n" ); document.write( "104=5w^2
\n" ); document.write( "104/5=w^2
\n" ); document.write( "20.8=w^2
\n" ); document.write( "sqrt(20.8=sqrt(w^2) [Find the square root of each side]
\n" ); document.write( "4.5607017=w (width)
\n" ); document.write( "(5)(4.5607017)=22.8035=l(length)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Check by plugging all of the values back into the original equation.
\n" ); document.write( "104=(4.5607)(22.8035)
\n" ); document.write( "104=103.9999 [Close enough]
\n" ); document.write( "
