You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Width = x
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 2 + 2x
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2 x length + 2 x width
\n" ); document.write( " 46 = 2 x (2 + 2x) + 2(x)
\n" ); document.write( " 46 = 4 + 4x + 2x
\n" ); document.write( " 46 = 4 + 6x
\n" ); document.write( " 46 - 4 = 6x
\n" ); document.write( " 42 = 6x
\n" ); document.write( " 7 = x
\n" ); document.write( "Width = 7ft
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 16ft
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
