Width = x
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 8 + x
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2*width + 2*length
\n" ); document.write( "60 = 2(x) + 2(8 + x)
\n" ); document.write( "60 = 2x + 16 + 2x
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 60 - 16
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 44
\n" ); document.write( "x = 11
\n" ); document.write( "Width = 11 inches
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 19 inches
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
