Lw = 100
\n" ); document.write( "L = 100/w
\n" ); document.write( "2L + 2w = 50
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "2L + 2w = 50
\n" ); document.write( "2(100/w) + 2w = 50
\n" ); document.write( "200/w + 2w = 50
\n" ); document.write( "200w/w + 2ww = 50w
\n" ); document.write( "2w^2 - 50w + 200 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=2, b=-50, and c=200
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "to solve the quadratic equation, plug this:
\n" ); document.write( "2 -50 200
\n" ); document.write( "into this: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "the roots of the quadratic are:
\n" ); document.write( "w = 5
\n" ); document.write( "w = 20
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "both roots will solve the problem, but traditionally width < length, so choose w = 5.
