Length, L
\n" ); document.write( "width, w\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "L=w+8 and 2w+2L=24.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2w+2(w+8)=24
\n" ); document.write( "w+(w+8)=12
\n" ); document.write( "2w+8=12
\n" ); document.write( "2w=4
\n" ); document.write( "w=2----------------part of answer, width
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "L=w+8=2+8=10 ---------------part of answer, length
